5G availability in the rural United States increased to 24.8 percent in the second quarter of 2023, up from 20.7 percent during the same period in 2022. Meanwhile, urban availability increased to 35 percent. While these figures highlight a persistent regional divide in U.S. 5G availability, 5G technology has been touted as a means of closing the digital divide by bringing fast, low latency internet to areas without fixed broadband infrastructure.
