About This Dataset
Fixed Broadband Subscriptions by Country 2023Monaco leads with 55.9 subscriptions per 100 people, ahead of Andorra on 51.7 and Liechtenstein on 49.4, meaning Europe's three smallest states occupy the entire podium. Their position reflects tiny, dense, wealthy populations where wiring every building is cheap and fast. Among large countries France leads on 48.7, ahead of Switzerland, South Korea and Germany, all clustered between 45 and 47. China's 44.7 is the standout at scale: reaching that rate across 1.4 billion people represents roughly 630 million subscriptions, far more than any other nation in absolute terms. The top ten spans a narrow band from 55.9 down to 44.3, showing that developed markets have converged near saturation for fixed lines.
