Twitter Inc. released its first quarter investor earnings report on March 14, and this article provides some interesting insights into the user demographics. We learned how many tweets per user, average age of users, and whether or not impulsive shoppers use Twitter to make purchases. But how many of them actually spend money, and which are the most popular tweets? Let&#8217;s take a closer look.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"User_demographics\"><\/span>User demographics<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Using Twitter, you are a lot more likely to be a Democrat than a Republican. About three out of five users age 18 to 49 identify as Democrats. Additionally, 53% of people aged 50 and older are Democrats. While Republicans comprise the largest percentage of Twitter users, they represent the lowest percentage of the population. This statistic may surprise you, but it is still a significant indicator of how the majority of the U.S. population views the country.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Number_of_tweets_per_day\"><\/span>Number of tweets per day<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>According to data from Statista, over 20% of Twitter users in the US are under the age of 25. These users make up the largest portion of the Twitterverse. US users account for the largest percentage of its users, at over 70 million. The US accounts for the largest percentage of tweets per day and are primarily female (40%) and younger (89%). Most Twitter users are also highly educated, with the top 10% of prolific users being women.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Average_age_of_users\"><\/span>Average age of users<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A recent report from Pew Research Center on the age demographics of US Twitter users has found that Twitter usage is mostly younger and more Democratic than other social networks. While there are many different demographics of Twitter users, the top 10 percent make up the majority of the US population. According to Pew, the top 25 percent of users produce 97% of tweets while the bottom 75% produce just 3%. While this may not sound like much, it&#8217;s important to know that Twitter usage is representative of the US population.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Number_of_impulsive_shopping_tweets\"><\/span>Number of impulsive shopping tweets<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Many people turn to Twitter for impulsive shopping. Over half of Twitter users say that they&#8217;ve purchased a product or service they&#8217;ve seen mentioned on the site. In addition, more than half say that they have told their friends about a product or service after seeing an ad. That&#8217;s exactly what advertisers are looking for: chain reactions! But what if you can shop from your mobile device? Twitter has just begun testing this feature. It&#8217;s only available to a small number of users in the US, but hopefully, it will grow to more users.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Number_of_political_tweets\"><\/span>Number of political tweets<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The number of political tweets from US Twitter users is increasing, but how do we gauge this trend? Recent research by Pew Research Center has shown that a higher percentage of tweets are political than non-political ones. The researchers used a 30-day sampling period that included the World Cup final. The study found that a larger share of political tweets are retweets than original tweets.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Number_of_millennials_on_Twitter\"><\/span>Number of millennials on Twitter<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>According to a recent study, the number of millennials on Twitter in the US is now almost forty percent. This group represents the entire age spectrum of the platform, from those under the age of 18 to those over forty-nine. The study also shows that more than one in five US adults is under thirty-five, with only 13% of those over fifty-nine. As a result, millennials are an important segment of the US user population, accounting for over half of its adult users.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Number_of_male_users_on_Twitter\"><\/span>Number of male users on Twitter<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Interestingly, a new study shows that men outnumber women on Twitter in the US by a margin of 68.5% to 31%, according to the latest data available. The most popular age group on Twitter is thirty to 49 years old, followed by white users at 27% and black users at 9%. The report also found that males in the 35-49 age range account for the largest share of Twitter users.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe width=\"536\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qwCn4j56_0M\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Many Twitter Users in the US Are Democrats?
