Open the original- What it measures
- The figures come from Edison Research's annual Infinite Dial survey of American households, reported here through its UK comparison release.
- What it does not show
- The release does not state the age group for the 2025 figure. Its 2021 figure refers to people aged 16 and older, so the two years may not share the same base.
