Social Interaction by Telephone or Internet. Respondents were then asked to estimate how <br />often they interact via telephone or social media and the results are reported in Figure 13. They <br />report a great deal of interaction. Over half say they interact via telephone or internet more than <br />once a day, with most of the rest interacting at least several times a week. The lowest rates occur <br />in Zones 1, 4 and 5. <br />Figure 14 <br />Social Interaction by Telephone or Internet <br />More Than Once a Day <br />About Once a Day <br />Several Times a Week <br />Once a Week <br />Once Every 2 or 3 Weeks <br />Never <br />Once a Month <br />Less Than Monthly <br />50.7% <br />20.0% _ <br />19.6% <br />5.2% <br />1.4% <br />1.4% <br />1.0% <br />0.7% <br />N = 1741 <br />It appears that most of these IR residents have active social lives with 73% interacting with people <br />at least once a day. Similarly, most interact more than once a day with people via the phone or <br />internet. Some, however, are very isolated — about 5% report in-person interaction once a week or <br />less and about 2% talk on the phone or use social medical less than monthly. Those living in Zones <br />1 and 5 reported the least amount of this type of social interaction. <br />Livable Indian River Survey Data Report 866 <br />
