Broadband in America Report: Visual Analysis of Broadband Coverage Changes

The map of American broadband continues to evolve, county by county, technology by technology, and dollar by dollar. The new Broadband in America Report provides a clear, visual overview of broadband coverage changes across the U.S., using the most recent data available from Versions 6 (December 2024) and 7 (June 2025) of the FCC Broadband Data Collection, CostQuest’s Location Fabric, and Network Cost Model data. With 116.4 million Broadband Serviceable Locations identified in Version 7 and 2,142 Internet Service Providers reporting broadband service, this report offers an interactive view of national and county-level deployment dynamics from December 2024 to June 2025. Between Version 6 and Version 7, the number of served BSLs rose from 109 million to 110.2 million, with an 8.4 percent reduction in unserved locations. Although 61.9 percent of counties reduced their unserved BSL counts, 12.3 percent experienced an increase, indicating persistent pockets of need within the broader U.S. broadband coverage landscape.
