In 1994, the youngest group had slight growth, while the 25-34 age group recorded a better increase at 20%. However, in the next 4 years, the youngest group overtook the 25-34 group, and both groups recorded 30%. Moreover, in the next 8 years, the youngest group generally increased to 60%, reaching a peak compared with other figures, while people who were aged 18-24 recorded balanced growth with no decline and were about 52% in 2006.
