The “state of digital” in Saint Martin in 2025
Here are DataReportal’s essential headlines for the adoption and use of connected devices and services in Saint Martin in 2025:
A total of 21.9 thousand cellular mobile connections were active in Saint Martin in early 2025, with this figure equivalent to 86.0 percent of the total population. However, note that some of these connections may only include services such as voice and SMS, and some may not include access to the internet.
There were 15.3 thousand individuals using the internet in Saint Martin at the start of 2025, when online penetration stood at 60.0 percent.
Saint Martin was home to 12.1 thousand social media user identities in January 2025, equating to 47.5 percent of the total population.
These headline stats offer a great overview of the “state of digital” in Saint Martin at the start of 2025, but in order to make sense of how digital trends and behaviours have been evolving over time, we need to dig deeper into the data.
Let’s take a closer look at what the numbers tell us, starting with some valuable context relating to the population of Saint Martin.
Population of Saint Martin in 2025
The population of Saint Martin stood at 25.5 thousand in January 2025.
Data shows that Saint Martin’s population decreased by 1,286 (-4.8 percent) between early 2024 and the start of 2025.
At that time, 53.6 percent of Saint Martin’s population was female, while 46.4 percent of the population was male.
Note: gender data were only available for “female” and “male” at the time of report production.
Saint Martin’s population by age
At the beginning of 2025, the median age of Saint Martin’s population was 42.5, with half of Saint Martin’s population above this age, and the other half of the population below it.
For added context, here’s how Saint Martin’s total population broke down by age group at the start of the year:
6.7 percent was between the ages of 0 and 4.
11.3 percent was between the ages of 5 and 12.
7.8 percent was between the ages of 13 and 17.
8.0 percent was between the ages of 18 and 24.
7.0 percent was between the ages of 25 and 34.
11.1 percent was between the ages of 35 and 44.
13.0 percent was between the ages of 45 and 54.
15.5 percent was between the ages of 55 and 64.
19.7 percent was aged 65 and above.
Note: percentages may not sum to 100 percent due to rounding.
Mobile connections in Saint Martin in 2025
Data from GSMA Intelligence shows that there were 21.9 thousand cellular mobile connections in Saint Martin at the beginning of 2025.
For perspective, many people make use of more than one mobile connection, so it’s not unusual for mobile connection figures to significantly exceed figures for total population.
For example, the same person might have one mobile connection for personal use, but also use a separate mobile connection for work activities. The rise of eSIMs has made this even easier over recent years.
However, this practice hasn’t yet pushed mobile connectivity rates in Saint Martin beyond 100 percent, and GSMA Intelligence’s numbers indicate that mobile connections in Saint Martin were equivalent to 86.0 percent of the total population in January 2025.
Looking at trends over time, the number of mobile connections in Saint Martin increased by 1,750 (+8.7 percent) between the start of 2024 and the beginning of 2025.
Meanwhile, GSMA Intelligence’s data suggests that 93.8% of mobile connections in Saint Martin can now be considered “broadband”, which means that they connect via 3G, 4G, or 5G mobile networks.
However, devices that connect to “broadband” mobile networks do not necessarily use cellular mobile data — for example, some subscription plans may only include access to voice and SMS services — so this broadband figure should not be considered a proxy for mobile internet use.
Internet use in Saint Martin in 2025
At the time of report production, the latest available data indicated that there were 15.3 thousand internet users in Saint Martin in January 2025.
This means that Saint Martin’s internet penetration rate stood at 60.0 percent of the total population at the start of the year.
Meanwhile, Kepios’s analysis indicates that the number of internet users in Saint Martin increased by 1,909 (+14.3 percent) between January 2024 and January 2025.
And for added perspective, Saint Martin’s internet adoption rate (i.e. the percentage of the total population that uses the internet) increased by a relative 20.0 percent (+1,001 basis points) during the same period.
But these user figures also suggest that 10.2 thousand people in Saint Martin did not use the internet at the beginning of 2025, suggesting that 40.0 percent of the population remained “offline” at the start of the year.
However, complexities associated with the collection and analysis of internet user data mean that it can often take several months before research is ready for publication.
As a result, the latest published figures for internet use may under-represent current realities, and actual rates for internet adoption and year-on-year growth may be higher than the figures shown here suggest.
Please see our comprehensive notes on data for further details.
Social media statistics for Saint Martin in 2025
DataReportal’s figures show that there were 12.1 thousand active social media user identities in Saint Martin in January 2025.
For perspective, this figure was equivalent to 47.5 percent of Saint Martin’s total population at the start of 2025.
However, while our methodology strives to “de-duplicate” social media users across different social platforms — and, wherever possible, to remove accounts that do not represent individual human users — it’s important to stress that our social media user identities figures may not represent unique individuals (see our detailed notes on data to learn why).
Moreover, due to complexities associated with de-duplicating users across different social platforms, the methodology that we use to calculate social media user identities may sometimes only factor users of the social media platform that has the largest active audience in the respective country at the time of report production.
As a result, the figures that we publish for a country’s overall social media use may sometimes look very similar to the statistics that we publish for the most popular social media platform in that country.
Separately, please also note that the signals and sources that we rely on to inform these social media figures make regular changes and corrections to their data.
As a result, the values for social media use shown here might appear to be quite different to the numbers that we published in previous years.
Because of this, we advise significant caution when comparing the values for social media user identities published in this year’s reports with those published in previous years, especially because changes in our reported values may be the result of “corrections” in the source data, and not all trends will be the result of changes in actual user behaviour.
This is particularly pertinent when it comes to trends in social media use over time, and we recommend that readers use the change figures published below, rather than trying to re-calculate growth figures using data published in our previous reports.
And on that note, Kepios’s analysis shows that social media user identities in Saint Martin decreased by 200* (-1.6 percent) between early 2024 and the beginning of 2025.
Turning our attention to user demographics, data published in the ad planning tools of top social media platforms indicates that there were 12.1 thousand users aged 18 and above using social media in Saint Martin at the beginning of 2025, which was equivalent to 63.9 percent of the total population aged 18 and above.
At that time, 54.6 percent of Saint Martin’s social media user identities were female, while 45.4 percent were male.
And for added context, it may be helpful to know that 79.1 percent of Saint Martin’s total internet user base (regardless of age) used at least one social media platform in January 2025.
Note: due to source data limitations, we’re only able to report gender data for “female” and “male”.
*Important note: the various signals that we use to inform our figures for social media user identities include advertising reach data published by individual social media platforms.
From time to time, these platforms may revise or “correct” the audience reach figures that they report in their advertising tools, and these interventions may result in apparent declines in reported audience reach.
In such instances, the figures that we report for social media user identities may also show a consequent decline in overall social media activity, but this is only because the platforms’ tools do not enable us to re-collect revised data for historical periods.
Indeed, in most instances where our social media user identities numbers show declines, it is unlikely that actual social media user numbers have declined to the same extent, and this is one of the reasons why we refer to “social media user identities” instead of “social media users”.
As a result, we advise significant caution when interpreting trends relating to negative trends in social media user identities figures.
