In the Baltic region, Estonia boasts the highest priced broadband services.
Here's the lowdown on those blazing-fast internet prices across the Baltics and beyond! 🌐
Estonia, known for its tech-savvy scene, may not be the go-to spot for budget-friendly broadband. According to cable.co.uk, it ranks 71st globally and has an average monthly bill of $31.21 (€28.80).
But hey, Latvia is here to save the day! If you're looking for a cost-effective connection, Latvia takes the crown with an average monthly price of just $16.59. Lithuania comes after with a price of $16.94 per month. Besides Estonia, the Nordic countries also have a bit heftier broadband bills, with Finland, Sweden, Denmark, and Norway all clocking in above Estonia.
So who's the world's winner in the affordable internet game? That title goes to Sudan, where you can get broadband for a mere $2.40 a month—though beware, the Sudanese pound's devaluation against the US dollar plays a part in this sweet deal. 🌴
Now, let's talk about Eastern Europe. Two countries—Ukraine and Romania—make the top 10 for cheap internet costs. Monthly internet bills are a mere $7.35 in Ukraine and $8.60 in Romania. If you're looking for a less expensive broadband than Estonia, Bulgaria, Montenegro, and Croatia also fit the bill. 🤑
In Western Europe, countries range from relatively affordable to not-so-budget-friendly. The region's average broadband price is $50.01. While none of the 29 countries make it in the top 50, Malta is the cheapest at $27.01 per month, followed by Italy ($30.97) and Spain ($31.99). Hang on to your wallet, though—The Faroe Islands, Norway, and Iceland are among the most expensive. 💼
So there you have it! Whether you're a tech buff in Estonia, a budget savvy in Latvia, or somewhere in between, keep these prices handy for your next online adventure! 🌍🌟
