The diagram shows numbers of people in five different age ranges living alone among 1850-2000. The bar chart is separated into each half-centuries and can be parted into two sections – first from 1850 to 1900, second is from 1950 to 2000. The percentage changes with each half-century, meaning that the number of people that live alone increased with each centurie.
In the 1850-th percentage of individuals with age range from 17 to 36 was very low, even zero. While older people from 37 to 54 ages, lived alone in near 2 percent of cases. But people from age group of 55-64 lived alone in amidst 2-4 percents. After the next 50 years percentage changes and while number of 17-26 aged people still on zero, percentage of 27-36 age range rise by almost 2 percent. Meanwhile, range of people from 37 to 46 age doesn’t change, percentage of 47-54 age group grew slightly, making it near 5%. The age group of 55-64 goes up near 4 percent.
However, in the next half-century all numbers are changed. In the 1950 age group of 17-26 rise to 2 percents, albeit number of people from 27 to 46 age ranges increased not much, reaching between 2 and 4 percents. While elders in 47-54 ages lived alone in near 4 percent of cases. But number of individuals in 55-64 rocketed to amidst 8-10 percents. Lastly, in 2000 the numbers grew dramatically. For instance, first age group’s percentage rose to near 5 percents, while number of people in 27-36 increased to 8 percents. The next age group’s number is in between 6-8%, when the percentage of the next age range from 47-54 was almost on 13%. The last and the largest out of all, range of people in 55-64 age hit near 15 percents.
