During an average week in Spring 2021, 43.5 percent of 'Classical' radio listeners in the United States were over 65 years of age. Considering the distribution of various radio formats' audience by age, it is clear to see that this genre is less appealing to the young, with only 8.4 percent of adults aged under 25 tuning in to "Classical" radio.
