Broadband speeds in TQ7
Share of TQ7 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 906 postcodes in the district.
Below-10 Mbps availability at 7.3% of postcodes is a concern here, double the rate seen in TQ6. This means more households may struggle with basic tasks like video conferencing and email. Superfast coverage reaches 77.4%, which trails the stronger neighbours in South Hams. Where faster speeds materialise, they do so in concentrated pockets: ultrafast availability is 32.5%, and the 30-300 Mbps band accounts for 44.9%, the broadest single segment in this batch. This distribution pattern suggests moderate infrastructure in most areas. Wireless technology contributes 3.9% to the overall coverage, providing options where wired superfast is unavailable. The below-USO rate of 2.6% means roughly 23 postcodes fall short of basic service levels.
