The bar chart provides information about the percentage of residents in five Australian cities who bought and drank coffee or tea in the last four weeks.
It is evident that in Melbourne, the majority of residents went to cafés for coffee or tea, while people in Adelaide and Brisbane were reluctant to buy fresh coffee during the same period. However, most residents across all cities showed a preference for purchasing instant coffee.
As shown in the chart, more than three-fifths of Melbourne residents were keen on visiting cafés for coffee or tea in the last four weeks. There were significant gaps between those who went to cafés and those who preferred buying fresh or instant coffee. Hobart was the second city where a large portion of residents visited cafés, with around 61%, while more than one-fifth of people purchased instant coffee, which was higher than the proportion in Melbourne. Less than two-fifths of Hobart residents bought fresh coffee.
Sydney followed closely, with three-fifths of residents going to cafés, while less than 45% bought fresh or instant coffee. In contrast, Brisbane and Adelaide had the lowest percentage of people buying fresh coffee, with less than a third (34%) in both cities. In both cities, less than 55% of residents bought instant coffee or went to cafés for coffee or tea.
