The top 15 fastest U.S. states in terms of Broadband Speed

50 states. They all have broadband. Which is the fastest when you pit them together? Apparently, Delaware is. Go figure. At a whopping 9 mbps, Delaware took the top spot with other notables such as New York at 5th place, California at 11th, and Alaska at 50, respectively.

I live in Southern California and I'm in the ballpark of somewhere between 8 mbps and 11mbps, depending on the day. Also, from the article, I love what the LA times wrote about Cali:

California, perhaps the nation's most high-tech-friendly state, ranked only 11th among the 50 states, well behind the national leaders. Still, the state's 6.6 Mbps average put it ahead of where it was two years ago, when it ranked 22nd among states, with barely more than 3 Mbps.

Wallowing in shame they brush off that this time two years ago they were at Alaska speeds, and flaunt their 5 mbps speed.
