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

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Broadband internet adoption across the New York metro area generally exceeds 75%, but notable pockets of lower connectivity (50–70%) concentrate in parts of the South Bronx, upper Manhattan (likely Harlem and Washington Heights), and central Brooklyn, areas that historically correlate with lower household incomes. Suburban zones in northern New Jersey, Westchester County, and western Long Island consistently reach 90–100% broadband penetration, with particularly high rates in affluent communities surrounding Stamford and the northern Westchester corridor. The sharpest contrasts appear at the boundaries between Manhattan's wealthiest zip codes and adjacent areas in the Bronx, where broadband rates can drop 20–30 percentage points within just a few miles.
