What have we learned about Chattanooga adults?

• They’re rum drinkers; possible pirate obsession.

• They index above average for having post-graduate educations and being employed in professional and related occupations; median annual HHI is slightly below the census division.

• They prefer dogs to cats, regardless of the cuteness of the cat.

• They swim and jog for exercise, love comedy (maybe too much) and enjoy the football, Olympics, NASCAR and MLB.

• Nearly a third identify as independent voters.

• Faith is key to this community.

• Heavy consumers of media; strong market for newspaper reading and radio listening; very interested in news in general.

• Are more likely to spend 10 hours or more online in an average week compared to the census division average.

• Heavy users of social media, especially Facebook.

• Boxers of briefs? We may never know . . . and that’s just as well.
