Pew Survey Shows 73 Percent of Americans Go Online
Apr 1, 2006, News Report
Three-quarters of white adults (74 percent) go online, compared to 61 percent of African-American adults. Fully 80 percent of English-speaking Hispanics go online.
Age continues to be a strong predictor for Internet use: 89 percent of 18-29 year-olds go online, compared to 82 percent of 30-49 year-olds, 71 percent of 50-64 year-olds, and 34 percent of those aged 65 and older.
These results are based on a survey of 2,000 adults, fielded by Princeton Survey Research Associates from January 9 through February 6, 2006. The margin of error is plus or minus 3 percentage points for results based on the full sample.
