Broadband speeds in YO11
Share of YO11 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 714 postcodes in the district.
North Yorkshire YO11 shows the rural divide clearly. Gigabit reaches 78.1% of postcodes, a good figure but well below the North West strongholds and showing infrastructure gaps in dispersed settlements. Superfast (30 Mbps+) is available to 97.5%, meaning nearly all addresses can stream or video call, yet speed concentration is lower than urban areas: 78.1% exceed 300 Mbps, and 19.4% sit between 30 and 300 Mbps. Fixed wireless at 70% is exceptional, second only to YO13 in this batch, reflecting a wireless backhaul strategy to serve rural postcodes.

YO11 broadband FAQs
Why is fixed wireless so prevalent in North Yorkshire YO11?

How reliable is 78.1% gigabit in practice?
Gigabit reaches a majority of postcodes but is not universal. Check your specific address, as rural postcodes have higher variance.
What does the 19.4% in the 30-300 Mbps band mean?
Nearly one in five postcodes access speeds suitable for video calls and streaming but not high-throughput tasks. This suggests mixed fibre/wireless deployment.
