The bar graphs compare the two main reasons why British people went abroad in 1999 and the number of those who came back within a week.
Overall, as the age rises the more British leave the country for work/study, while the opposite trend could be seen for those leaving for holiday. It is also noticeable that the highest percentage of people returning within a week belongs to the age category of below 20, whereas the age group of 25-30 comprised the lowest figure.
Leaving the country for holiday was the most common reason for those under 20 at 80%, while this age comprised the least number for work/study at 10%. The proportion of those who went abroad for a holiday in the age category of 25-30 was nearly 3 times higher than those who left for work/study at just over a fifth. Above 40 had the highest figure of people going abroad for work/study at 70% but it also comprised the smallest number for British who left for a holiday at 30%.
Returning within a week was commonly observed for those under 20 at approximately 65% but the 25-30-year-old group had the least number of cases at 35 %. The figures for 20-25, 35-40 and above 40 were about a half, nearly 40% and just over 40% respectively.
