Development of mobile connectivity in Finland is concentrated in urban areas
The fastest mobile connections are mainly concentrated in cities, population centres and the main transport routes surrounding them. In rural areas, and particularly in sparsely populated rural areas, the level of connectivity is clearly weaker. Overall, however, high-speed 4G and 5G mobile networks in Finland are relatively comprehensive.
Telecommunications operators have made significant investments in broadband networks – connection performance has improved and fibre availability has expanded in Finland
In recent years, telecommunications operators have significantly increased their investments in fixed broadband networks, with the majority directed towards fibre deployment. As a result, fibre networks have expanded and the performance and capacity of connections have improved across Finland. However, in sparsely populated areas and outside urban settlements, fast fixed internet connections remain less widely available.
