If people made more money in Baltimore, would our city's broadband adoption rate be better?
This is one question that arose while I put together a story about Baltimore, the desire for better broadband, and the city's recent application for the Google Fiber project.
I found recently released data from the FCC that showed broadband adoption among communities across the country, and I was able to compare Baltimore to other Maryland jurisdictions and other big and small cities. Baltimore, for the most part, lags when compared with its peers. In Maryland, the city has about the same rate of broadband adoption as its most rural areas.
