Literacy rate, adult total (% of people ages 15 and above), 1992–2024. Bars, not a line: a line drawn across a year the source does not report would invent an observation a reader could not tell from a measured one.

The World Bank reports 20 of the 33 years between 1992 and 2024 for El Salvador. The missing 13 are drawn as gaps, because a gap is what they are.
