Share of people who listen to podcasts monthly in the U.S. 2017-2020, by age group

Published by Amy Watson, Jun 3, 2020
According to a survey held in early 2020, 49 percent of respondents aged 12 to 34 years old had listened to a podcast within the preceding month, compared to 22 percent of those aged 55 or above. Adults in the latter age category have been increasing their podcasting listening consistently for years, and the share of those who had listeed to a podcast in the last month almost doubled between 2017 and 2020.
