Study: Growth in Net for home research
December 18th, 2006 Posted in General
According to the Pew Internet and American Life Project the number of internet users who go online to look for information about a place to live has grown steadily over the past six years. Now, nearly two in five adult internet users in the U.S. (39%) have done this, up from 34% in 2004 and 27% in 2000. Fully half of internet users ages 18 to 29 have looked for housing information online. From an economic development standpoint this is another indication of the importance of marketing your city or towns “wired community” status.
