county-by-county broadband Internet speeds & availability in TN
In January, Connected Tennessee announced the release of the nation’s first county-by-county reading of average Internet speeds across Tennessee.
The maps reveal that the average statewide upload speed is 575 kilobits per second (Kbps) and the average statewide download speed is 3.4 megabits per second (Mbps). This means that the average Tennessean with broadband service can download a typical 1 megabyte document in less than three seconds. For those on dial-up service, the same process would take almost four minutes. Fifteen of Tennessee’s 95 counties registered significantly lower than the average upload speed, while 30 counties fell short of the average download speed.

Cool info! I'm particularly surprised to see so many areas in high-growth Williamson, Rutherford and Montgomery counties without broadband internet access. |

Jeanne, the map can be enlarged and is quite detailed, even though individual streets are not labeled. But it does show that Adamsville offers broadband access. |

Don't click ON the map. Click on one of the links UNDER the map you want to look at. It'll end with either (PDF) or (JPG). The (JPG) link will come up faster, but the (PDF) link will let you enlarge the map even more. |
