|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Female | 13,110,000 | 17,028,000 | 16,780,000 | 10,751,000 | 12,156,000 | 69,825,000 |

| Total | 22,653,000 | 36,067,000 | 34,104,000 | 23,051,000 | 30,252,000 | 146,127,000 |
Overall reach in the United States is distributed broadly across adult age groups rather than being concentrated only in the youngest segment. The strongest volumes sit in the 25–34 and 35–44 ranges, while older age groups also account for a substantial share of the total audience. Gender split remains close to parity, with a moderate skew toward male users.
- Male audience leads: 76,302,000 users, or 52.2% of the total (female: 69,825,000, 47.8%).
- Younger users still represent a major segment, but not an overwhelming majority: 58,720,000 users, or 40.2% of the total audience, fall within the 18–34 range.
- Core audience: 25–34: 36,067,000 users, or 24.7% of the total.
- Older segments are especially meaningful in the U.S. market: 45+ totals 53,303,000 users (36.5%). For context, 35–44 contributes an additional 34,104,000 users.
TikTok Ads Manager also provides a High Spending Power segment for the United States. In platform terms, spending power relates to the degree to which people are likely to have money to buy products and services, while high spending users typically spend more on purchases than the average user. This is not a measure of total market size. Instead, it isolates a narrower audience that may be especially relevant for advertisers promoting premium retail, higher-value services, or products with a stronger discretionary spending component.
High Spending Power TikTok audience in the United States by age and gender
| Gender | 18-24 | 25-34 | 35-44 | 45-54 | 55+ | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Female | 3,113,000 | 4,778,000 | 3,672,000 | 1,964,000 | 1,159,000 | 14,686,000 |
| Male | 1,498,000 | 3,010,000 | 2,552,000 | 1,560,000 | 1,339,000 | 9,959,000 |
| Total | 4,611,000 | 7,788,000 | 6,224,000 | 3,524,000 | 2,498,000 | 24,645,000 |
The high spending power audience totals 24,645,000 users, which is about 16.9% of the broader TikTok audience captured in this estimate. Compared with the full U.S. audience, this segment is narrower and somewhat more concentrated in the 25–44 range. It also shifts toward a more female-heavy composition, suggesting that premium-oriented reach in the U.S. may look meaningfully different from overall platform reach.
- Female share in the high spending segment: 14,686,000 users, or 59.6% of the total (male: 9,959,000, 40.4%).
- The segment still leans younger and mid-age: 12,399,000 users, or 50.3% of the high spending audience, fall within the 18–34 range.
- Core high spending cohort: 25–34: 7,788,000 users, or 31.6% of the total segment.
- Older high spending users remain material: 45+ totals 6,022,000 users (24.4%), while 35–44 adds another 6,224,000 users.
Methodology and data limitations: The data was collected from TikTok Ads Manager and reflects the minimum potential audience estimate for the selected targeting. The figures do not account for overlap with other targeting dimensions such as device, behavior, interests, or additional audience filters. The High Spending Power table reflects a more selective platform-defined segment and should be interpreted as a narrower subset rather than a replacement for the overall reach estimate. These estimates are useful for forecasting technical reach, but they require additional validation of unique users after accounting for audience overlap.
