percentage of households with electrical appliances and the number of hours of housework per week

percentage of households with electrical appliances and the number of hours of housework per week EpY5R

The line graphs reveal information on the proportion of households with electrical appliances and the average number of hours doing housework in a week over a period of one century, from 1920 to 2019. From an overall perspective, there was a general rise recorded in the ownership of electrical appliances throughout the whole period of time and it is interesting to note that the more these technological devices were used, the less time that the householders spent on cleaning the houses. In 1920, while, there were 40% households used washing machine, which appeared to be by far the highest rate among the ownership of three chosen category, closely followed by that of vacuum cleaner with 30%, nearly no one owns a refrigerator. Nevertheless, the year 1920 to 1980 witnessed an exponential growth in the figure for the ownership of refrigerator, rising from approximately 0% to roughly 100% and remained unchanged at that level up until 2019. In terms of the figures for the ownership of washing machine and vacuum cleaner, the rate stood at 65% and 100%, respectively by the end 2019. Looking to the information in more detail we can see that between 1920 and 2019, the figure for the amount of time people spent on doing housework declined consecutively, from 50 hours per week to just well over 10 hours, a huge decrease of almost five times.
