Chart - Demographics Of Instagram Users

The demographics of Instagram users look a little bit different, although linear trends are also few and far between. Some 20% of female cell phone users aged 18 and up use the application, compared to 16% of males, although Pew doesn’t deem this a statistically significant difference.

Once again, the biggest gap comes when sorting by age. Fully 43% of 18-29-year-old cell phone users report using Instagram – a number that will likely rise over time given a recent report showing that Instagram is now the second-most important social network to American teens, tied with Facebook behind Twitter.
