Is 1994 considered the early 90's?
No. 1994 is considered mid-'90s with 1995 and 1996.
The exact middle of the 1990s is January 1, 1995. That implies 1993 is as close to the middle as 1996. (This is why 1993 is also sometimes considered mid-'90s.) And it implies 1994 is as close as 1995 to the middle.
If you're dividing the '90s between early and late, and not considering a middle, then you'd place 1994 in the early section. (The early '90s would thus be 1990 to 1994, and the late '90s would be 1995 to 1999.) But this is rarely done.
