Age Distribution

This chart shows the distribution of ages among Adventist Young Professionals.

Age Distribution Analysis

The age distribution of Adventist Young Professionals shows a clear pattern spanning from 18 to 44 years old. This 26-year range captures a diverse group of young professionals at various stages of their careers and spiritual journeys.

Core Age Group and Peak Distribution

The data reveals a strong concentration in the late twenties, particularly between ages 27-29. The highest number of respondents is observed at age 28 (approximately 35 respondents), closely followed by age 27 (approximately 34 respondents). This peak suggests that this age range represents a critical period for young professional engagement within the Adventist community.

Age Distribution Pattern

The distribution follows a clear progression: starting with minimal representation in the 18-20 age range (1-2 respondents), it shows a steady increase through the early twenties (22-26). After the peak at ages 27-29, there's a gradual decline through the early thirties (30-34), followed by smaller numbers in the 35-44 range. This pattern suggests that engagement with the AY program varies significantly across different life stages.

Key Age Clusters

Three distinct clusters emerge from the data: The primary cluster (ages 27-29) represents the core group of young professionals, showing the highest level of engagement. A secondary cluster (ages 31-33) indicates continued involvement through the early thirties, though at reduced levels. The tertiary cluster (ages 23-26) shows growing engagement among emerging professionals, suggesting a pipeline of future active members.

Distribution Characteristics

The overall distribution takes the shape of a bell curve, with a slight skew toward younger ages. The sharp peak at ages 27-29, rather than a plateau, indicates a very specific age range where engagement is strongest. The long tail extending into the early forties suggests that while engagement decreases with age, some professionals maintain their connection to the AY program well into their careers.

Age Distribution Insights

The distribution of ages suggests that the survey may appeal more to younger adults, particularly those in their twenties and thirties, which could be relevant for analyzing trends or preferences among this demographic.
