Broadband speeds in B35
Share of B35 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 281 postcodes in the district.
A gap emerges in B35's connectivity profile. Superfast is widespread at 98.1%, yet gigabit availability drops to 92.2%. This 5.9-point split likely reflects postcodes served by improved copper or cable networks that deliver superfast speeds but lack gigabit fibre infrastructure. Speed data reinforces the split: 92.2% at 300 Mbps+, 6% in the superfast band capped below gigabit, and no postcodes below 30 Mbps. The fibre shortfall represents around 16 postcodes where households can access 30-300 Mbps but not faster. For relocation decisions, this gap matters significantly: gigabit availability cannot be assumed even where superfast is common. Households should verify infrastructure type at their specific address before committing to speed-dependent work or services.
