>which is not very surprising given that only one of them is free.

It mentions this in the write up.

That said, most of the people I know have been to far more movies than they've been to the library (which is exactly 0 times). I know people who have never been to the library in their adult life. The library is an underutilized resource.

How many kids with school projects do you hang out with? How many seniors without a computer do you know?

This isn't a study in how many people you know.

I know no one who goes to movies or libruaries but this study didn't capture that.
