Study: Wealth Dictates Web Use, Tech Adoption

Didn’t someone else recently release a study that said the same thing…the more money you have the more likely you are to have / use the internet and other tech devices? Not sure why we need studies to tell us stuff like this, seems pretty obvious.

According to Pew Research, 95 percent of Americans living in households with $75,000 or more in annual income are "at least occasionally" likely to access the Web. That figure drops to 70 percent of people in homes with less than $75,000 of annual income. About 57 percent of those with less than $30,000 in annual income use the Internet. Pew also found that 99 percent of people in higher income households access the Internet from home, while 93 percent of those with less income surf the Web from home.
