Internet Speeds in California Counties

California Internet Speeds by County

Intro The goal of this project was to collect internet speeds in counties throughout California and explore the reasoning behind the differing county speeds. (Github Link) Findings Pictured below are the top 20 counties by average download speed (Mbps). Contrary to what many may think, only a few counties, like San Mateo, Contra Costa, and Alameda, ranked in the top 20 for both average internet speed and median household income (Census Bureau), but more than half of the counties with top 20 internet speeds did not intersect that top 20 income list....
