Someone asked 12,000 Americans how often they take naps, and 25% said a few times a week. That was the most common answer. 13% of us never nap.
Once a day was next at 19%. Another 6% said they usually take MULTIPLE naps a day. But here's the crazy part. You'd expect the multiple-nap crowd to be mostly seniors. But the top age group that takes more than one nap a day is actually people in their TWENTIES.
11% of Americans under 30 said they nap multiple times a day. That's one in nine, compared to just 1 in 25 seniors. And a third of those young people said they wish they could take even MORE naps than they already do. The poll also asked for the "ideal length" of a perfect nap. 20 to 30 minutes was the top answer, followed by up to an hour. 13% said two hours or more. Young people were the most likely to say two-plus hours is ideal.
