Penetration rates for fixed broadband in rural and urban areas in 2014

When considering broadband take-up progress by country, it is clear that wide

Luxembourg, Finland, the United Kingdom, Sweden and Germany registered the highest
broadband penetration figures in 2014, while Bulgaria, Romania, Portugal and Greece
have the lowest take-up rates in both rural and urban areas (see Figure 1).
