Why Ohio performs this way

Ohio 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. A dense population base and heavy suburban demand keep Ohio just under the US norm. Dense urban demand tends to compress speeds first because more subscribers share the same orbital capacity at peak times. Relative to the national reference point of 184 Mbps down, 22 Mbps up, and 38 ms ping, Ohio is a useful benchmark for how local density and terrain affect real household performance in 2026.
