Thanks again to all of you who took our recent reader survey. We wanted to share some of the information we got from the survey so you can know a little bit more about the people reading with you in the DailyLit community. Here are some of the most interesting details:
Age
26-35 19.5%
36-45 16.7%
46-55 22.9%
56-65 19.4%
66 or older 9.5%
Good to know: Love of reading never gets old.
Gender
Male 25.7%
Female 74.3%
Good to know: Women who read DailyLit, the women who run DailyLit–Susan and MaggieH–say howdy.
Do you have children?
Yes 51.3%
No 48.7%
How many books have you read in the past 12 months?
4-10 21.6%
11-20 24.4%
21-30 15.3%
Good to know: In addition to all of those books being read, 17.4% of you reported reading more than 50 books in the last 12 months. DailyLit: singlehandedly (well, many-handedly) disproving the idea that “people don’t read anymore.”
What about under 26? I’d be one who falls in that demographic. :)

To keep the post short we posted numbers from the most major categories, and our under 26 demographic was a bit smaller than the others. We still love our under-26ers, though! (I’m one of them!)
