20 years has been considered to be a generation.

However, with many people in industrialized countries waiting until their 30s to have their first child, some are now considering one generation to be 25 or even 30 years.

Also, in a non-quantitative sense, one generation is simply the children of one person or couple, and the next generation is all the grandchildren of that person or couple, and so on for each succeeding generation.
