I am doing the annual look at broadband in each county – based on maps from the Office of Broadband Development and news gathered from the last year.
Last year Anoka was ranked number #7 for broadband access; this year they have moved up to number 5. We haven’t tracked much happening in the state since the last broadband profile in 2017. They are still ranking well – and their ranking is improving.
Info on Access:
| Speeds | % served 2017 | % served 2018 |
| 25/3 | 97.56 | 98.87 |
| 100/20 | 96.10 | 97.86 |
The speeds reflect the Minnesota speed goals:
- 25 Mbps down and 3 up by 2022
- 100 Mbps down and 20 up by 2026
Current ranking for 100/20 access: 5
