Social Network Usage Share By Site & Age, December 2014 [CHART]

This year, 95.0% of 18-to-24-year-old internet users in the US will log on to a social network via any device at least once per month, eMarketer estimates—the highest penetration among any other age range. Based on recent research by comScore Media Metrix, Snapchat usage skews heavily toward this group.

Their older millennial counterparts—25- to 34-year-olds—had the second-largest share of users, though one nearly 20 percentage points lower, leaving the 35-and-older group with just 30% share.
