Wouldn't it be easier to figure out how many people do have broadband and subtract from the population to get a rough guess? ISP's report subscription numbers.

Wouldn't it be easier to figure out how many people do have broadband and subtract from the population to get a rough guess? ISP's report subscription numbers. It won't be super accurate but maybe that is sufficient.
- chipperyman573 7y agoWould this handle multi-person households?
- b_tterc_p 7y agoIncorporate avg number of people per house...?
- hanniabu 7y agoDo we really have no record of how many houses are in the US? I hate how absolutely inefficient government is
- b_tterc_p 7y agoWe have excellent data on this
- hanniabu 7y agoThen I don't see the issue of why we can't calculate like the parent said to figure out how many houses don't have service. If we know how many houses there are and the ISPs know the homes they serve, then you can figure out the difference.
- jrochkind1 7y agoThey are looking for the number of people/households/whatever who don't even have an option for broadband, not just the number who don't subscribe.
