The line graph illustrates the percentage of four different types of distinct advanced technologies in households in a given city from 2000 to 2020. Overall, the data reveals a significant growth in mobile phones, smart home devices, and the internet, whereas cable TV services declined slightly over time.
In 2020, mobile phones and the internet were the most common technologies held in the city. Mobile phones started at 40% in 2000 and increased significantly, reaching a high of 95% in 2020, while the internet stood at a much lower rate of around 10% in 2000 before rising sharply to nearly 90%, nearly matching mobile phones’ records.
Conversely, cable TV services were the least popular in the city in 2020. The former began at 70% in 2000, reaching a peak of 80% in 2010, witnessing a slight drop in 2015 by around 1%, subsequently ending at just below its original record in 2000 of 85%. On the other hand, the smart home devices didn’t exist in 2000, however, they grew gradually over the following decade, reaching approximately 18% in 2010. After that, they experienced a substantial growth throughout the following 10 years, eventually recording just around 2% less than cable TV. It is important to note that, despite cable TV was the most popular in 2000, it was less common in 2020.
