As U.S. carriers continue to hit new milestones in their 5G network’ rollouts, Opensignal has now conducted the most comprehensive analysis of smartphone users’ 5G mobile experience across the U.S. We included all 50 states and as many as 250 cities in this new study.

Our 5G users on the East Coast generally had a better 5G experience, followed by users on the West Coast and in the Great Lakes region.
New York stood out with the fastest average 5G download speeds at 114 Mbps, with Maryland following in second at 99.8, and New Jersey in third with 98.3
Coming in the last three spots were Mississippi at 49.1 Mbps, Maine at 46.1, and Vermont with an average of 42.2 Mbps.

Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont had the worst results at just 11.2, 10, and 5.7% 5G availability.
