This year, 169.5 million individuals in the US-- or majority of the populace-- will certainly use Facebook, a 0.9% increase from 2017, according to our estimates.
By the end of the forecasting duration (2022 ), we anticipate Facebook's customer base to expand to 176.3 million. That's many thanks, in large component, to older demographics.
How Old Are Facebook Users?
While more youthful customers are leaving Facebook at an even quicker speed than we formerly expected, older age groups are accessing the social platform more-- especially the 55-to-64 as well as 65-plus age.
" Each of those age groups will add about 1 million brand-new customers in 2018, which is purposeful thinking about Facebook's user base as a whole will certainly boost by only 1.6 million," said eMarketer senior projecting expert Chris Bendtsen. "What this implies is that Facebook is adding more brand-new older individuals than it's losing more youthful ones."
In general, Facebook's usage among 55- to 64-year-olds will certainly increase by 4.9% in 2018. And usage among those 65 as well as older is anticipated to enhance by 6.0%.

Teenagers might be moving from Facebook, however it's still the No. 1 social network among millennials, Gen Xers as well as boomers.
In fact, infant boomers prefer Facebook over other social apps, like Pinterest, Instagram as well as especially Snapchat. This year, we anticipate 31.9 million individuals in that friend to utilize Facebook.
" Facebook is still carrying out well in these older age," stated eMarketer principal analyst Debra Aho Williamson. "It's true that Instagram is gaining strength among those 35 and older, but Facebook stays their platform of option."
" It's where their family and friends are, and its attributes recognize and secure," she included. "Regardless of Facebook's widely publicized problems with information privacy, hacking and phony information, most customers in these age groups are still utilizing it."
