What is the average age in the Physics Forum?

[LukeJD]

I'm curious about demographics here at the Physics Forum.

 

[Evo]

Can anyone find the other 2 dozen threads on this? I'd like to tag them all under a single heading.

Thanks!

That's a perfectly fine question, btw, Luke.

Haha no, but I see "average speed and velocity" like 5 times in the suggested threads thing at the bottom.

Friday Evening:

0 - 15 0 0%
16 - 21 9 64.29%
22 - 25 1 7.14%
26 - 35 0 0%
36 - 50 3 21.43%
51 - 70 1 7.14%
71 + 0 0%

Interesting (if actual majority is 26+)!

[marlon]

but i still have the mojo of a 22 y old

 

[Defennder]

marlon you're joking, aren't you. There's a prominent statesman who's also 72 years old.

nope, i truly am 72

 

[binzing]

Just a spry old Dutchman are you?

 

[arunma]

I'm 24, but my maturity is a factor of pi less.

 

[marlon]

spry old yes, Dutchman no

Interesting 26-35 dip starting to appear. To busy forging a career and changing nappies to mess about in here!

Some of us were over 35 when we had kids.

 

[binzing]

What? I thought you were Dutch...If you don't mind, Where are you from?

 

[Astronuc]

Belgium.

 

[jhicks]

I'm guessing people will take exception to having 51 in the same group as 70

 

[Gokul43201]

Some other's might not take too kindly to having 72 in the same category as 72,000.

I'm in the middle; in that so far uncommon age group belonging to finishing grad students, postdocs and "young" faculty. You could say I'm nearly peerless.

 

[out of whack]

i am 72

So your average age is 36?

 

[binzing]

Belgium.

Ah yes, that sounds familiar.

 

[Chi Meson]

Belgium.

Ah! So he's French.

*run away, giggling like a five-year-old*






OW!

I think it has more to do with the inclusion of larger ranges of ages in the older than 35 categories. :grumpy:

owwwch that is not nice

16 (4 char)

I expected the demographic to be younger here, that's why I made smaller categories, but 16-21 being the predominate age is still a surprise.

 

[Redbelly98]

i am 72

Do you plan to vote?

71 + . . . 0 . . . 0%

Not to those of us who have been here a while. We have a lot of university students here.

I'm no longer in the same age group. After a couple years of membership, it changes... slightly.

Same here...I've been bumped into the group with the 50 year olds. :tongue:
