High-Speed Internet in North Carolina
The state of broadband - or high-speed internet - is rapidly changing. Our dashboards are effective tools for planning as they provide detailed information about the progress of high-speed internet access projects within each county. It also provides a view of programs that provide computers and digital skills training options by county so our residents can safely use the internet for education, business, telehealth, entertainment and more.
