But they have 12 bars and 6 labels... it makes no sense

I see 6 labels. ~~I guess that means 2 surveys per year~~. But I’m just guessing.

It's probably a dataset that collected every 2 years, but only labeled every other bar to prevent the graph from being overcrowded.

Not a great decision, but not terrible.

Although, I'm a bit concerned for Lemmys graph comprehension skills.

Your right I can't count i guess still makes no sense
