% of Households with Broadband Internet, by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — New York

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Broadband adoption rates across New York State exhibit a clear suburban-urban-rural gradient, with the highest penetration (90–100%) concentrated in the suburban ring counties surrounding New York City—particularly on Long Island, in Westchester, and in the lower Hudson Valley—while portions of the Adirondack region, Southern Tier, and western Catskills show notably lower rates, often falling below 70%. Several zip codes within New York City itself display striking internal variation, with pockets dipping below 60%, likely corresponding to lower-income neighborhoods in the Bronx and parts of Brooklyn. The North Country and central Adirondacks contain a visible cluster of darker-shaded zip codes, reflecting persistent rural connectivity gaps despite relatively high statewide averages.
