Broadband speeds in PE23
Share of PE23 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 384 postcodes in the district.
Gigabit availability is just 16.2%, markedly below UK standards. Superfast reaches 74.2%, meaning 25.8% of postcodes lack superfast access. The 8.9% below 10 Mbps is severe for a non-remote district, and another 3.5% miss USO thresholds. Alternative services appear in 13% of postcodes, a substantial presence reflecting network gaps. The modal tier is 10 to 30 Mbps at 58%, indicating most households operate at speeds below modern expectations. East Lindsey's rural Lincolnshire character creates persistent infrastructure gaps. The heavy reliance on alternative services demonstrates how uneven fixed-line deployment leaves residents with limited conventional options. Real digital disadvantage persists here.
