I think since '77 about 53 times. I actually thought it was more than that but I guess not. According to Google: What is 53 out of 47? Solution: 53/47 as a percent is 112.766% - I don't think that's right. I probably asked the question wrong. So if I change the years to my life years instead of the years we've been going to WDW the percentage dropped to 79.10%. IDK, it still seems high. If I do our youngest Google says at 12 trips over 35 years = 34%. I still think that seems high. Your construct is a bit off  . You essentially calculated how many years of your life, on average, have you gone to Disney - e.g. I am 20 years old and have gone to Disney 20 times so I have gone, on average, 100% of every year I've been alive. The question is what percentage of your life. You have been to Disney 53 times since 1977. Assuming each vacation was 7 days, that would make 371 days at Disney in those 53 visits, or roughly one year. Since 1977, you have spent about 2% of your life at Disney. Since your youngest is 35, I'm guessing you were born prior to 1977. So, you would also need to factor in your younger years when you might not have gone at all. For your youngest, it is closer to 0.5%. Thank you |

Typical these days is 2 5-day trips to Disney/year. So roughly 2.3% of the year is WDW.
Cheers.

6-7% last year. My wife and I are in our 40's. We have 4 kids. And we live 1,000 miles away. So I thought was a very good %. Not going to be able to replicate that this year.

Whatever our percentage is... it isn't enough!

Last year was crazy. On our 22-23 AP we spent over 40 nights on Disney property. Given around 190 non-school nights in a year, it works out to 1 out of 4 nights that the kids did not have school were spent at Disney World. Our 24-25 AP is looking to be just as fun! |

I realize We are outliers but here goes
Age 1-18 once a year family trip to Disneyland
19 - 25 not much
26 - 56 in '83 we made our first trip to WDW then we slowly started ramping up more and more trips ending with 4 or 5 a year mostly being 5 day trips. As well as several days at Disneyland.
56 -65 moved to what we like to call Fantasyland north so it really depends how you define "at Disney" we probably pass through a ticket turnstile on the average of once every 2 weeks and probably average at least once a week at DS. If you mean touch Disney property then it would be at least once a day on average. Then if you want to include the backside of fireworks or listening to the boat and train whistles or boat parade music then it is every freaking night...
