Telecommunication in Puerto Rico
Compared to the
European Union, Puerto Rico has a slight downturn in the development of telecommunications. Under the country code +1809, there were a total of 4.06 million connections in 2019. Among them were 3.37 million million mobile phones, which corresponds to an average of 1.1 per person. In the EU, this figure is 1.2 mobile phones per person.
In the expansion of broadband Internet connections, Puerto Rico is back. Around 71% of all residents have access to the Internet. Approximately 19% have their own fast Internet connection, which is at least faster than the previous ISDN (more than 2048 kbit/s).
With about 469 webhosts, Puerto Rico is below the world's average by population.
