    The document details average temperatures and sunlight hours in London, New York, and Sydney over a given year. London and New York have similar four-season climates, though temperatures are more extreme in New York. Sydney has the reverse pattern with milder temperatures year-round. New York receives the most sunlight, followed closely by Sydney, with London receiving much less. While London and New York experience temperature drops in winter, Sydney is warmest from December to February and coolest from June to October.

    The line chart and table detail both average annual temperatures and total hours of sunshine in

    a given year in London, New York, and Sydney. Overall, London and New York display broadly
    similar four-season climates, though the extremes are more pronounced in New York while
    Sydney has a reverse weather pattern with milder overall temperatures. In terms of overall
    sunshine, New York leads, followed closely by Sydney and distantly by London.

    Looking first of all at London and New York, both undergo serious drops in temperature
    beginning in November as the former falls to just over 10 degrees Celsius, intersecting the latter
    at the same point. From there, temperatures in New York plummet throughout the winter with
    a low of under 5°C in January and February, while London bottoms out at around 9 degrees.
    Both rise steadily in the spring and peak in summer at around 23°C for London and nearly 30°C
    for New York. In contrast, Sydney is warmest from December to February (plateauing at over 25
    degrees) and cools steadily to under 15 degrees from June to October.

    Overall sunshine shows a different pattern with New York (2,535 hours) and Sydney (2,473)
    proximate and London much lower at 1,180.

    The bar chart details percentages for the number of people living in households

    across a twenty-year period beginning in 1981 in the UK. Looking from an overall

    perspective, it is readily apparent that the households with more people declined

    and the reverse was true of smaller homes. The middle groups were the only

    exceptions to this with increases for 4 people homes and declines for 3 person

    homes.

    The overall leaders in both time periods belonged to 1 and 2 people households.

    Both increased by 3%, finishing the time surveyed at 26% for the former and 34%

    for the latter. This contrasted with 5 person households (falling by a quarter to 6%)

    and 6 or more people in a home, which plummeted from 6% to 2%.

    The middle groups showed divergent trends with 4 people homes rising by 3% to

    15% and 3 people homes declining by the same margin to 17%.
