http://ow.ly/6zgg2The link above is to a study by Aaron Smith, Senior Research Specialist for the Pew Research Center. The study pertains to research done about use of cell phones by Americans. The survey states, "Cell owners between the ages of 18 and 24 exchange an average of 109.5 messages on a normal day—that works out to more than 3,200 texts per month—and the typical or median cell owner in this age group sends or receives 50 messages per day (or 1500 messages per month)."
For the overall survey, there were 53% that still said they preferred a voice call to a text message.
As the survey states, "Overall, the survey found that both text messaging and phone calling on cell phones have leveled off for the adult population as a whole. Text messaging users send or receive an average of 41.5 messages on a typical day, with the median user sending or receiving 10 texts daily – both figures are largely unchanged from what we reported in 2010. Similarly, cell owners make or receive an average of 12 calls on their cells per day, which is unchanged from 2010."
