yeah but that’s not the message you want to convey. if you’re talking about difference in generations, you’re essentially talking about change through time. so the x axis should represent time from past to present. therefore you should do it by age from highest to lowest.
Am I the only one annoyed at the graph being backwards? The past goes on the left, the present on the right.
No, you are not alone. It makes it harder to read.
Not if you look at it by age number smallest to largest

Why would we do that when it’s categorized by age group?
