Broadband in Homes 2000-2009

The proportion of homes with a broadband connection is a more precise and comparable indicator than overall broadband subscriptions per 100 people. This chart plots the percentage of homes with broadband plotted against GDP per capita (in PPPs). The size of the bubbles show the relative household sizes in each country and the colors reflect the region. Data are primary source from national regulatory agencies and national statistical offices. The GDP per capita data is from the IMF. The lack of information for many countries does not necessarily mean homes do not have broadband but rather there is no official data. As more data becomes available (hopefully through the 2010 Census round that many countries are undertaking) it will be added.
