A comment on In 2019, Americans went more to the library than to the movies on average. Parent comment
Your page points to this — good luck finding the hyperlink though!
Anyway, defined as “% of population that did the thing at least once”, movies are first, parks second, and libraries third.
Parks have seen a huge uptick in popularity. The other two dropped off (libraries dropped off more than movies).
In terms of median visits per person (probably the better measurement), almost nothing changed.
Concerts went from 1 to 2 visits, libraries went from 3 to 2. I’d guess those are explainable as statistical noise.
