It depends on the child and when they feel comfortable taking them off. My youngest sister was 4, my other sister and my brother were both like 5, and I was about 7.
I've known kids who were as young as 3 who could ride a bike without training wheels and i've known kids as old as 10 who just felt comfortbale with taking the training wheeels off.
Most kids I think are about 4 to 6 years old though.
My son is 5 years old (although physically he is more on the level of a 3 year old) and he has just started riding a trike good about 6 months ago, and we are going to be getting him his own bike soon, but the training wheels are probably going to be on for quite awhile as he isn't going to be able to ride a two wheeler bike for a long time.

Suggestions for a CHEAP hybrid bike?

I haven't ridden a bike since I was a kid but I want to start riding a bike to get in shape. What are some suggestions for a good, but cheap Hybrid bike from Wal-mart or Target? I want to be able to ride on the gravel trails around here, but not off-road, so I don't want a mountain bike. Any other suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
Answer
For riding on gravel trails, the hybrid bike is a good choice. It's got bigger wheels like a road bike and a more upright position. It also has mountain bike style gearing in case you run into hills. I own a hybrid for just that purpose and it works very well.
Don't go to WalMart or Target. The bikes they sell are one size fits all, are heavy, don't work very well, and don't last very long. Your local bike shop will have bikes at the low end of the price range, probably starting around $250 to $350. Brands don't matter. Bikes that cost the same are usually built the same and have the same components. Unlike the WalMart, a bike shop will have bikes that fit you. They know how to properly assemble them. You will be much more comfortable and much safer.
Above all, save enough money for a helmet. Don't put your butt on the seat without a helmet on your head.
