The bar chart presents a comparison for the age cohorts of British travellers in Spain in 1983 and in 2003.
Overall, readily discernible in the chart is that despite a remarkable downfall, visitors from 34 to 54 years old remained the most prevalent throughout 20 years. It is equally notable that except for 34-54 years and 25-34 years, the other age groups experienced an upward trend, albeit to varying extents.
Looking closely at the statistics in 1983, the figure for visitors aged 34-54 years old demonstrated clear dominance, accounting for half the chart. Contradictorily, the minority share is represented by 16-34 years, comprising less than 5%. Meanwhile, three left age groups account for a cumulative share of approximately 50%, each grouping around 10% to 20%.
After 20 years, the percentage of British visitors aged 34-54 witnessed a significant drop of 15%, yet maintained its supremacy over other cohorts. Also, a downward trend was seen in the figure for 25-34 years, culminating in only 12% in the last examined period, equitable to that of the 0-15 age group, which contrastingly underwent a marginal rise. The figures for 16-24 and 55+ years registered an analogous increase of 10%, arriving at 15% and 26%, respectively.
