The bar chart illustrates the proportion of households with internet access across four income groups in the years 2010 and 2020.
Overall, internet access increased in all income groups over the decade, with higher-income households consistently having greater access. Notably, while all groups saw improvements, the gap between the lowest and highest income groups remained significant.
In 2010, around 35% of households in the lowest income group had internet access. This figure rose substantially to approximately 50% by 2020. The second income group experienced a more moderate increase, from just under 60% in 2010 to about 70% in 2020.
The third income group showed relatively high access in both years, rising from around 75% in 2010 to nearly 85% by 2020. The highest income group, which already had strong internet penetration at about 80% in 2010, saw a smaller increase to roughly 90% in 2020, maintaining its position as the group with the highest access throughout the period.
