As we move through the second quarter of 2025, social media continues its global expansion with remarkable numbers. Currently, there are 5.24 billion active social media user identities worldwide, representing over 60% of the global population, with growth continuing at a steady 4.1% over the past year[3].
In the United States specifically, 246 million Americans are active on social media platforms as of early 2025, accounting for 72.5% of the population. This represents an increase of 7 million users since January 2024, a growth rate of nearly 3%[5].
Demographics tell an interesting story across platforms. The 25-34 age bracket dominates American social media with 44.7 million monthly active users, followed closely by those aged 35-44 with 40.9 million users. Gender distribution shows 120.7 million female users compared to 111.4 million male users in the US[5].
Millennials remain the most engaged demographic group, with estimates suggesting 69.2% will be using social media throughout 2025[2]. This trend highlights the continued importance of tailoring content strategies to reach this influential audience segment.
The broader digital picture shows approximately 5.56 billion internet users globally as of February, representing nearly 68% of the world's population[4]. Social networking sites are projected to reach 5.42 billion users by the end of 2025, with further growth expected as mobile device usage continues to expand[1].
What's particularly notable is the depth of engagement among connected adults, with research indicating that a staggering 97.3% of internet-connected adults use at least one social network or messaging platform monthly[3].
As platforms evolve and user behaviors shift, understanding these demographic patterns becomes increasingly crucial for anyone looking to maintain relevance in the digital space. The continued growth, despite approaching market saturation in developed regions, demonstrates social media's enduring role in global communication.
