Why New Jersey performs this way

New Jersey sits below the United States average because subscriber demand is more concentrated, especially during the evening window when shared capacity is under the most pressure. High density across the Northeast corridor makes New Jersey one of the more congested markets. The biggest driver is usually subscriber density rather than raw geography, especially in markets where rural demand is spread across wide cells. Relative to the national reference point of 184 Mbps down, 22 Mbps up, and 38 ms ping, New Jersey is a useful benchmark for how local density and terrain affect real household performance in 2026.
