About Three-In-Ten 31% U.S. Adults Say They Are ‘Almost Constantly’ Online
Overall, 85% of
Americans say they go online on a daily basis. That figure includes the 31%
who report going online almost constantly, as well as 48% who say they go
online several times a day and 6% who go online about once a day. Some 8% go online
several times a week or less often, while 7% of adults say they do not use
the internet at all. Adults under the age
of 50 are at the vanguard of the constantly connected: 44% of 18- to
49-year-olds say they go online almost constantly. By comparison, just 22% of
those ages 50 to 64 and even smaller shares of those 65 and older (8%) say
they use the internet at this frequency. While the share of 18-
to 29-year-olds who say they use the internet almost constantly has risen 9
percentage points since 2018, it remains unchanged since 2019. Meanwhile, the
share of constantly online Americans ages 30 to 49 has risen 14 points since
2015, and the share of 50- to 64-year-olds has risen from 12% in 2015 to 22%
in 2021. The share of Americans ages 65 and older saying this has not grown
since the Center began asking this question in 2015. Other demographic
groups that report almost always going online include college-educated
adults, adults who live in higher-income households and urban residents.
While 40% of adults
with an annual household income of $75,000 or more say they use the internet
almost constantly, this is true for just 27% of those living in households
earning less than $,000 a year. Adults who live in urban areas are the most
likely to say they go online almost constantly, compared with suburban
residents and an even smaller share of those who live in rural areas. (PEW) MARCH 26, 2021 |
