OK, let’s get into the data…
The state of digital in Martinique in 2024
Here are DataReportal’s essential headlines for digital adoption and use in Martinique in early 2024:
There were 225.7 thousand internet users in Martinique at the start of 2024, when internet penetration stood at 61.5 percent.
Martinique was home to 144.0 thousand social media users in January 2024, equating to 39.3 percent of the total population.
A total of 641.0 thousand cellular mobile connections were active in Martinique in early 2024, with this figure equivalent to 174.8 percent of the total population.
These headline stats offer a great overview of the “state of digital” in Martinique, but in order to make sense of how digital trends and behaviours are evolving, we need to dig deeper into the data.
Let’s take a closer look at what the latest numbers tell us, starting with some valuable context relating to the population of Martinique.
Population of Martinique in 2024
The population of Martinique stood at 366.7 thousand in January 2024.
Data shows that Martinique’s population decreased by 547 (-0.1 percent) between early 2023 and the start of 2024.
54.0 percent of Martinique’s population is female, while 46.0 percent of the population is male.
At the start of 2024, 89.4 percent of Martinique’s population lived in urban centres, while 10.6 percent lived in rural areas.
Note: gender data are currently only available for “female” and “male”.
Martinique’s population by age
The median age of Martinique’s population is 47.0.
Here’s how Martinique’s total population breaks down by age group:
4.7 percent is between the ages of 0 and 4.
8.4 percent is between the ages of 5 and 12.
6.1 percent is between the ages of 13 and 17.
9.1 percent is between the ages of 18 and 24.
10.1 percent is between the ages of 25 and 34.
8.5 percent is between the ages of 35 and 44.
12.8 percent is between the ages of 45 and 54.
16.4 percent is between the ages of 55 and 64.
23.8 percent is aged 65 and above.
Note: percentages may not sum to 100 percent due to rounding.
Internet use in Martinique in 2024
There were 225.7 thousand internet users in Martinique in January 2024.
Martinique’s internet penetration rate stood at 61.5 percent of the total population at the start of 2024.
Kepios analysis indicates that internet users in Martinique increased by 9,181 (+4.2 percent) between January 2023 and January 2024.
For perspective, these user figures reveal that 141.0 thousand people in Martinique did not use the internet at the start of 2024, suggesting that 38.5 percent of the population remained offline at the beginning of the year.
However, complexities associated with the collection and analysis of internet user data mean that it can often take several months before research is ready for publication. As a result, the latest published figures for internet use invariably under-represent reality, and actual adoption and growth may be higher than the figures shown here suggest. Please see our comprehensive notes on data for further details.

Social media statistics for Martinique in 2024
DataReportal’s figures show that there were 144.0 thousand active social media user identities in Martinique in January 2024.
Note: over the past year, we’ve made some important changes to how we calculate social media user numbers, and the data sources that we use to inform these calculations have also made significant and wide-ranging revisions to their published figures during that period.
As a result, our latest figure for social media use might appear to be quite different to the values that we published in previous years.
Because of this, we advise caution when comparing the social media user values published in this year’s reports with those published in previous years, especially because changes in reported values may be the result of “corrections” in the source data, as well as changes in actual user behaviour.
For clarity, Kepios analysis shows that social media users in Martinique increased by 5,650 (+4.1 percent) between early 2023 and the beginning of 2024.
The number of social media users in Martinique at the start of 2024 was equivalent to 39.3 percent of the total population, but it’s important to stress that social media users may not represent unique individuals (see our detailed notes on data to learn why).
Meanwhile, data published in the ad planning tools of top social media platforms indicates that there were 144.0 thousand users aged 18 and above using social media in Martinique at the start of 2024, which was equivalent to 48.6 percent of the total population aged 18 and above at that time.
More broadly, 63.8 percent of Martinique’s total internet user base (regardless of age) used at least one social media platform in January 2024.
At that time, 56.3 percent of Martinique’s social media users were female, while 43.7 percent were male.
Note: gender data are currently only available for “female” and “male”.
Facebook users in Martinique in 2024
Data published in Meta’s advertising resources indicates that Facebook had 134.6 thousand users in Martinique in early 2024.
However, Meta has made important changes to the way its advertising resources report audience reach data over recent months – including making significant revisions to its base audience data for Facebook – so the figures shown here may not be directly comparable with figures published in our previous reports.
To learn more about these changes, please see this article, as well as our comprehensive notes on data.
Facebook user growth in Martinique
Figures published in Meta’s own tools indicate that Facebook’s potential ad reach in Martinique decreased by 3,750 (-2.7 percent) between January 2023 and January 2024.
For more recent context, the same data show that the number of users that marketers could reach with ads on Facebook in Martinique decreased by 22 thousand (-13.8 percent) between October 2023 and January 2024.
However, it’s important to stress that these advertising reach figures are not the same as the monthly active users figures that Meta reports in its investor earnings announcements, and they should not be interpreted as such.
As the company states within its ad planning tools,
“Estimated audience size is not a proxy for monthly or daily active users, or for engagement. Estimates aren’t designed to match population, census estimates or other sources, and may differ depending on factors such as how many accounts across Meta technologies a person has, how many temporary visitors are in a particular geographic location at a given time, and Meta user-reported demographics.”
As a result, changes in ad reach may not necessarily indicate any change in the platform’s overall user base.
But despite these caveats, Meta’s ad reach data still offers valuable insights into how Facebook use is evolving.
Facebook adoption in Martinique
Facebook’s ad reach in Martinique was equivalent to 36.7 percent of the total population at the start of 2024.
However, Meta only allows people aged 13 and above to use Facebook, so it’s worth highlighting that 42.3 percent of the “eligible” audience in Martinique uses Meta in 2024.
For additional context, Facebook’s ad reach in Martinique was equivalent to 59.6 percent of the local internet user base (regardless of age) in January 2024.
At the start of 2024, 53.8 percent of Facebook’s ad audience in Martinique was female, while 46.2 percent was male.
Note: Meta’s advertising resources only publish audience gender data for “female” and “male” users.

Instagram users in Martinique in 2024
Numbers published in Meta’s advertising tools indicate that Instagram had 144.0 thousand users in Martinique in early 2024.
The company’s regularly revised figures suggest that Instagram’s ad reach in Martinique was equivalent to 39.3 percent of the total population at the start of the year.
However, Meta only allows people aged 13 and above to use Instagram, so it’s worth highlighting that 45.2 percent of the “eligible” audience in Martinique uses Instagram in 2024.
It’s also worth noting that Instagram’s ad reach in Martinique at the start of 2024 was equivalent to 63.8 percent of the local internet user base (regardless of age).
In early 2024, 56.4 percent of Instagram’s ad audience in Martinique was female, while 43.6 percent was male.
Note: Meta’s advertising resources only publish audience gender data for “female” and “male” users.
Instagram user growth in Martinique
Data published in Meta’s planning tools show that Instagram’s potential ad reach in Martinique increased by 16 thousand (+12.5 percent) between January 2023 and January 2024.
On a quarterly basis, the company’s data also reveal that the size of Instagram’s ad audience in Martinique decreased by 12 thousand (-7.8 percent) between October 2023 and January 2024.
As we noted in the Facebook section above though, changes in the audience reach figures published in Meta’s ad planning tools do not necessarily correlate with overall changes in its platforms’ active user bases.

TikTok users in Martinique in 2024
Figures published in ByteDance’s advertising resources indicate that TikTok had 38.0 thousand users aged 18 and above in Martinique in early 2024.
Note that ByteDance allows marketers to target TikTok ads to users aged 13 and above via its advertising tools, but these tools only show audience data for users aged 18 and above.
For context, ByteDance’s figures indicate that TikTok ads reached 12.8 percent of all adults aged 18 and above in Martinique at the start of 2024.
Meanwhile, TikTok’s ad reach in Martinique was equivalent to 16.8 percent of the local internet user base at the beginning of the year, regardless of age.
In early 2024, 56.6 percent of TikTok’s ad audience in Martinique was female, while 43.4 percent was male.
Note: ByteDance’s advertising resources only publish audience gender data for “female” and “male” users.
Having said that, ad audiences often only account for a subset of a platform’s total users, and given that TikTok’s ad tools only publish data for users aged 18 and above, it’s important to remember that trends in TikTok’s ad reach figures may not necessarily match changes in the platform’s overall user base.

Facebook Messenger users in Martinique in 2024
Data published in Meta’s advertising resources indicate that ads on Facebook Messenger reached 77.0 thousand users in Martinique in early 2024.
The company’s frequently revised audience numbers suggest that Facebook Messenger’s ad reach in Martinique was equivalent to 21.0 percent of the total population at the start of the year.
Meta only allows people aged 13 and above to use Facebook Messenger though, so it’s worth highlighting that 24.2 percent of Facebook Messenger’s “eligible” audience in Martinique in 2024.
For additional context, Facebook Messenger’s ad reach in Martinique is equivalent to 34.1 percent of the local internet user base (regardless of age).
At the start of 2024, 54.2 percent of Facebook Messenger’s ad audience in Martinique was female, while 45.8 percent was male.
Notes: Meta’s advertising resources only publish audience gender data for “female” and “male” users.
Facebook Messenger user growth in Martinique
Data published in Meta’s planning tools show that Facebook Messenger’s potential ad reach in Martinique decreased by 3,750 (-4.6 percent) between January 2023 and January 2024.
On a quarterly basis, the company’s data reveal that the size of Facebook Messenger’s ad audience in Martinique decreased by 12 thousand (-13.7 percent) between October 2023 and January 2024.
However, as we noted in the Facebook section above, changes in the audience reach figures published in Meta’s ad planning tools do not necessarily correlate with overall changes in its platforms’ active user bases.

LinkedIn users in Martinique in 2024
Figures published in LinkedIn’s advertising resources indicate that LinkedIn had 120.0 thousand “members” in Martinique in early 2024.
However, note that LinkedIn’s advertising tools publish audience reach data based on total registered members, rather than the monthly active users that form the basis of the ad reach figures published by most other social media platforms.
As a result, these LinkedIn figures are not directly comparable with the figures for other social media platforms published on this page, or in our Digital 2024 reports.
The company’s advertising reach figures suggest that LinkedIn’s audience in Martinique was equivalent to 32.7 percent of the total population at the start of 2024.
LinkedIn prevents people below the age of 18 from using its platform though, so it’s also helpful to know that 40.5 percent of the “eligible” audience in Martinique uses LinkedIn in 2024.
For additional context, LinkedIn’s ad reach in Martinique was equivalent to 53.2 percent of the local internet user base (regardless of age) at the start of the year.
In early 2024, 53.1 percent of LinkedIn’s ad audience in Martinique was female, while 46.9 percent was male.
Note: LinkedIn’s advertising resources only publish audience gender data for “female” and “male” users.
LinkedIn user growth in Martinique
Data published in LinkedIn’s planning tools show that LinkedIn’s potential ad reach in Martinique increased by 20 thousand (+20.0 percent) between the start of 2023 and the beginning of 2024.
On a quarterly basis, the company’s data reveal that the size of LinkedIn’s ad audience in Martinique increased by 10 thousand (+9.1 percent) between October 2023 and January 2024.
However, because LinkedIn’s ad audience figures are based on total registered members rather than monthly active users, it’s unclear whether these trends might reflect changes in active LinkedIn use too.

X users in Martinique in 2024
Numbers published in X (Twitter)’s advertising resources indicate that X had 66.0 thousand users in Martinique in early 2024.
This figure means that X’s ad reach in Martinique was equivalent to 18.0 percent of the total population at the time.
However, it’s important to stress that these advertising reach figures are not the same as monthly active user figures, and there may be meaningful differences between the size of X’s ad audience and its total active user base.
Moreover, we’ve seen some particularly bizarre trends in the data reported in X’s advertising tools over the past year, so we’d advise caution when it comes to analysing these X figures.
It’s worth noting that X only allows people aged 13 and above to use its platform, so the latest figures suggest that 20.7 percent of the “eligible” audience in Martinique uses X in 2024.
For additional context, X’s ad reach in Martinique was equivalent to 29.3 percent of the local internet user base (regardless of age) at the start of the year.
In early 2024, the company’s own data indicated that 38.4 percent of X’s ad audience in Martinique was female, while 61.6 percent was male.
However, it’s worth noting that X infers its users’ gender, by analysing signals such as the name that users enter in their profile, and their broader activity on the platform.
This contrasts with the gender data offered in the advertising tools of platforms like Facebook, which relies on the gender that users themselves enter in their own profile.
Moreover, our analysis suggests that X’s inferences may not be particularly reliable in determining users’ gender, especially in countries where English is not the dominant language.
For example, consumer research findings published by GWI often offer quite a different picture of X use by gender compared with X’s own audience data.
But the apparent distortions that frequently appear in X’s inferred gender data may be due in large part to the high number of “non-human” accounts that feature in X’s active user data (e.g. accounts that represent businesses, animals, musicians, etc.), especially because X doesn’t currently separate these accounts out from “real” human individuals in the ways that Facebook and Instagram do.
Regardless of the cause of these anomalies though, we advise caution when analysing or interpreting X’s reported figures for use by gender.
X user growth in Martinique
Data published in X (Twitter)’s own ad planning tools show that X’s potential ad reach in Martinique decreased by 1,019 (-1.5 percent) between the start of 2023 and early 2024.
Meanwhile, the same data show that the number of users that marketers could reach with ads on X in Martinique decreased by 148 thousand (-69.1 percent) between October 2023 and January 2024.
However, please note that the figures published in X’s planning tools appear to be liable to significant fluctuation – even over short periods of time – and these anomalies may impact the reliability and representativeness of this change data.

Mobile connections in Martinique in 2024
Data from GSMA Intelligence shows that there were 641.0 thousand cellular mobile connections in Martinique at the start of 2024.
However, note that many people around the world make use of more than one mobile connection – for example, they might have one connection for personal use, and another one for work – so it’s not unusual for mobile connection figures to significantly exceed figures for total population.
GSMA Intelligence’s numbers indicate that mobile connections in Martinique were equivalent to 174.8 percent of the total population in January 2024.
The number of mobile connections in Martinique increased by 20 thousand (+3.3 percent) between the start of 2023 and the start of 2024.
