Broadband speeds in CF33
Share of CF33 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 307 postcodes in the district.
Nearly 95% of postcodes reach superfast speeds, with gigabit availability at 79.2%. The area shows a clear bifurcation: almost four in five postcodes have gigabit-capable networks, but another one in six sit in the 30-300 Mbps range. Just over one per cent of postcodes fall below the universal service obligation threshold. Wireless access accounts for 15.6% of gigabit availability, reflecting cable and wireless network contribution to the ultrafast coverage seen here. The remaining gap sits between superfast and gigabit, a smaller-than-average spread. For most households, the question is not whether broadband reaches them, but whether they can access gigabit when they need it. Nearly one in five postcodes here will find gigabit unavailable, facing instead the solid but slower superfast tier.
