The bar chart gives the levels of individuals in Great Britain living alone by age and gender in 2004/05.
Overall, living alone was common among women as they went older. The 35-44-year-old people was the only category that was dominated by men.
The percentage of people living alone increased as they grew older. For instance, nearly 60% of females in the 75 and over age group tended to be single, in comparison with under 30% of males.
The second group age saw a dominance of males when approximately 25% of them chose to live separated while only under 10% of the opposite sex chose the same. Surprisingly, the first age group almost had a similar percentage (about 15%), and the same pattern can be seen for the third one. The dominance of female loners started in the 65-74 age group with over 30% of people are women, compared to 15% of men.
