The chart compares the percentage of daily Internet users in the UK among different age groups between 2003 and 2006.
Overall, in all given years, 16-24-year-old individuals were dominant internet users, whereas adults aged 65 and above showed the least intrest to the web. Moreover, the proportion decreased as the age increased.
Turning to the percentages of daily internet users in the 16-24 and 25-44 age brackets, the former age group commenced at the peak of 80% in 2003, while the latter one began at just over 70%. In the following year, neither of them experienced significant increases, but then the proportion in the 16-24 age group increased noticeably to just under 90% in 2005, becoming 10% higher than the second group. In the end, percentages in both age groups changed slightly, reaching around 85% and 80%, respectively.
The three oldest groups showed much lower levels of Internet usage. For those aged 45-54, the figures fluctuated, starting at 55%, rising dramatically, then falling, and ultimately ending at almost 70%. The 55-64 age bracket experienced a constant growth over the years, commencing at above 30% in 2003 and finishing at 55% in 2006. However, the oldest age group, those 65 and over, had the lowest internet usage, starting at a mere 2-3%, then fluctuating slightly over 3 years, before ending at just under 20% in 2006.
