The Average AmericanSo it is clear that I am developing a deeper curiosity for understanding “who are they?” the consumer, the average Joe and the click. I came across this book I planned to get into months ago, The Average American. I love these facts from the NPR interview with the author, . It’s important to remember that there is a non-iPhone centric world outside the Bayosphere. How average are you? • Eats peanut butter at least once a week• Prefers smooth peanut butter over chunky• Can name all Three Stooges• Lives within a 20-minute drive of a Wal-Mart• Eats at McDonald’s at least once a year• Takes a shower for approximately 10.4 minutes a day• Never sings in the shower• Lives in a house, not an apartment or condominium• Has a home valued between $100,000 and $300,000• Has fired a gun• Is between 5 feet and 6 feet tall• Weighs 135 to 205 pounds• Is between the ages of 18 and 53• Believes gambling is an acceptable entertainment option• Grew up within 50 miles of current home
