Share of DE13 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 969 postcodes in the district.
Ultrafast reaches 57.1%, with gigabit at 56.7%. Cable is the only source. The mid-speed 30-300 Mbps band claims 35% of postcodes, and 3% sit below 10 Mbps.

The postcode distribution shows clear concentration: cable networks serve urban zones intensively, whilst semi-rural postcodes sit in the mid-speed holding pattern. Price variation here likely tracks infrastructure tiers, with gigabit postcodes commanding premiums. DE13 is a mixed-capability district where location within the outcode matters substantially. Speed verification before moving is essential.
