Twitter use demographics

Bankwalker

@Pigeons @Mikegriff

80% of all twitter accounts are located outside of the USA

Roughtly 72 million twitter accounts are active in the United States. Not all of those are individual accounts, obviously.

Roughy one quarter(25%} of white and black identified American adults use twitter. That means 75% do not use twitter Duh

Slightly more than half of all twitter users are female.

Twitter use by age group

Usage among U.S. adults drops as age increases. Pew research found that 27% of those aged 30-49, 15% of those aged 50-64, and 8% of those aged 65 and above use Twitter (down from 10% in 2016).

Therefore - TWITTER IS A TERRIBLE CHOICE TO USE WHEN TRYING TO SAMPLE THE BROAD DEMOGRAPHIC OF ADULT COLLEGE FOOTBALL FANS.

Game Over.

Since we're being petty, here's an excerpt from how DHS calculates undetected border crossings. Feel free to read the whole thing online and then get back to me with an actual critique of the methodology instead of, "I don't understand it, so it can't be real."

Also by your numbers 50% of Twitter users are over 30.

I didn't know this twitter poll was so important to be scientifically accurate.

23.6% of made up statistics are created by conservatives

100% of this thread is useless, but it is slightly entertaining.

Your argument doesn't make a bunch of sense to me @Bankwalker. You're basically saying that because Twitter users are only a subset of certain groups of humans, they can't be used for sampling data. I hope that when anyone tells you about any type of poll, you remain logically consistent an reject it on the basis that not every human was asked to participate. The idea of Family Feud must have you seething.

I'm obviously just poking fun at your argument. I think looking at demographic breakdown of Twitter users by age would support your claim better.

And only a 64.2% chance of that.

What’s the cost of rent in Bank’s head? Seems @MikeGriffith has most of that property claimed but maybe he’ll let me sublet over the summer

Bank has his shortcomings but he's basically a good citizen of this online community and occasionally makes a solid contribution.

Mike has his shortcomings but I appreciate his position and his reporting, and I think he deserves respect.

The political debates on here range from mildly annoying to outright infuriating. Lately I find myself biting my tongue several times each day. I'm sure I'm not alone.

I wish we could modify the forum rules and just make politics off limits altogether.

I'm staying outta the political conversation but here's a pretty cool Twitter demography.
