FTTH/B in Rural Areas 2023

The report shows that by September 2022, only 41% of rural inhabitants could enjoy capabilities offered by full-fibre connectivity (compared to the average number of 56% of European households in the EU27+UK region that are covered by FTTH/B networks). The five countries with the highest Rural FTTH/B coverage are Denmark (86%), Romania (83%), Latvia (77% Spain (74%), and Portugal (70%). The report emphasizes that the coverage of rural areas in EU27+UK is growing steadily and at an even increasing pace compared to non-rural regions; a clear indication that the focus of policy and regulation initiatives is shifting towards the sub-urban and rural areas.
