About this ranking

Share of people aged 16 to 74 who bought or ordered goods or services over the internet for private use in the 12 months before the survey (Eurostat ICT usage survey).

A share of all people aged 16 to 74, not only of internet users. The questionnaire changed in 2020; Eurostat marks series breaks around that year.

Every value in the ranking comes from the same publisher and the same period, so the autonomous communities are compared on one definition. Equal values share a rank.
