Arizona Above National Average For Broadband Connections, But Cost Still A Concern

Nearly 80 percent of Arizonans had a broadband connection at home in 2015. That’s according to n ew numbers from the U.S. Census Bureau.

That puts Arizona in the top half of states and is about 1.5 percent higher than the national average.

To talk more about this, I’m joined by Chike Aguh. He's the CEO of Everyone On, which is a national nonprofit working in Arizona and elsewhere. He describes its goal as to connect everyone, everywhere to the internet.
