30vuotiaat

30vuotiaat (Finnish for thirty-year-olds) is a term used to refer to people who are thirty years old. In Finnish statistics and social research, 30vuotiaat is a defined age cohort used to analyze how people at that life stage differ from other age groups and how social and economic developments affect them.

Use and scope: The cohort is used in census and survey data to study education level, employment, income, family formation, housing, health, and consumption patterns. Analysts may examine differences by gender, region, and socio-economic background. In marketing, 30vuotiaat may be treated as a target segment with specific preferences, such as housing, childcare, digital services, and durable goods.

Life course and typical patterns: At age 30, many individuals have completed formal education and are in the early to mid-stage of their careers. They may form partnerships or start families, buy or rent housing, and establish routines around work and family life. Health status is generally good, though work-life balance and stress can be factors. The exact situation varies by country and socioeconomic context; in many Western societies, delays in marriage and childbearing, rising housing costs, and career specialization have shaped experiences of 30vuotiaat.

Context in Finland: In Finland, 30vuotiaat are a standard unit in population statistics and policy research. Analyses focus on education completion, employment security, wage levels, home ownership, fertility, and urbanization among those aged 30. Regional and gender differences are commonly explored.

Limitations and notes: Age is only one dimension of a person’s profile; cohort comparisons should be complemented with other variables. The characteristics of 30vuotiaat can vary widely across regions, cultures, and economic conditions. See also: Age cohort, Demography, Population pyramid, Finnish statistics.
