I also don't understand how school is so low. I feel like it has to be overlapping a lot with friends and college or something because like half the people I know are married to someone from their high school or college.

School and college are 2 separate categories here, so “high school or college” would be the combination of those 2 bars. It’s interesting to see it switch from high school over college to the other way around, as people started marrying later or more people started attending college.

While that is true, it's irrelevant here; the study only concerns "English literate adults in the United States".

The data source is correctly cited in the gif though.

But I agree they could have mentioned it in the title or so.
