According to new data from SocialBakers, Facebook users are 53 percent male and 47 percent female. The trend has been skewing more male since 2010, when the site was 51 percent female.
The average age in 2010 was 29.53, and is now 30.11.
SocialBakers says in its report on the changing landscape of Facebook that “the once student-oriented social network is progressively becoming a network for everyone, even for families and older people who are effectively becoming more computer literate and social media savvy.”
