   Florida State College in DeSoto County, one of the few sites in the   
   county to have fast and reliable internet service   
      
   By Justin Garcia   
      
   A Federal Communications Commission (FCC) map shows that DeSoto County   
   falls far behind surrounding counties, as well as the national   
   average, when it comes to broadband speed.   
      
   The map shows that 50.84% of DeSoto residential broadband customers   
   have access to speeds higher than 100/10 Mbps, while the rest of the   
   residential service is at 25/3 Mbps or less. The national average   
   broadband speed as of 2020 was 86.04/11.86 Mbps. This means that   
   nearly half of the DeSoto County residents only have access to   
   internet speeds that are more than three times less than the national   
   average.
