## Summary

While median watch counts reveal age-based differences in typical behavior, the spread within Gen Z reveals stark inequality in viewing intensity. The middle 50% of 16–24-year-olds spans from 751 to 3,398 weekly videos—a 4.5× range. By contrast, 35–44-year-olds occupy a compressed band of 78–1,172, and 55+ range from 235–1,179. This dispersion indicates that TikTok consumption among Gen Z is highly polarized: some are occasional viewers, while others consume the platform obsessively.

## Chart

Box plot or range chart with interquartile bars (light blue or gray), cohort median marked as a dark tick. 16–24 cohort IQR: 751–3,398. 25–34 IQR: 336–1,784. 35–44 IQR: 78–1,172. 45–54 IQR: 96–950. 55+ IQR: 235–1,179. All labeled with tick and value.

The visual emphasis on the 16–24 cohort's wide spread underscores not just heavier consumption, but greater heterogeneity. This reflects the diversity within Gen Z — some users treat TikTok as a background app, while others have integrated it as a primary form of entertainment and social connection. Older cohorts show tighter clustering, suggesting more uniform, moderate engagement patterns.

## Methodology

Each user (with ≥2 active weeks in Q1) assigned a per-user median weekly watch count. Cohort distribution summarized as 25th percentile (Q1), median (50th), and 75th percentile (Q3). Sample after the ≥2-week filter: 570 users (16–24 n=144, 25–34 n=169, 35–44 n=155, 45–54 n=63, 55+ n=39).
