Methodology
ISP Reports' unique methodology sets this ranking apart from
others. The Weighted Max Download Speed metric, which averages
speeds at the block level for every city, provides a precise and
accurate analysis of internet speeds. Unlike other rankings that
rely on the fastest speeds reported by ISPs or user speed test
data, ISP Reports' approach ensures a more representative and
reliable comparison.
With the average city in this ranking containing 2,838 blocks,
and each block housing an average of 70 residents, this method
offers unparalleled accuracy. For more detailed information about
our methodology, please visit our methodology page.
Local Insights and Impact
While ISP Reports excels at national-level comparisons,
understanding the nuances behind these rankings requires local
insights. Our data reveals a clustering of cities with high-speed
internet in certain metro areas, such as Salt Lake City and Chattanooga. This pattern suggests that larger
cities with significant internet initiatives can boost the
performance of smaller cities in their vicinity. Despite this
clustering, many smaller cities demonstrate outsized performance
relative to their populations, highlighting their successful
efforts in enhancing internet infrastructure.
