An Evolving Digital Divide: Measuring and Understanding Mobile-Dependent Households
Despite unprecedented broadband investment, the share of U.S. households relying solely on cellular data and mobile devices, or mobile-dependent households, increased from 11.9 to 14.1 percent between 2019 and 2024. This report introduces the MDH concept, which captures the "double whammy" of limited data and limited screen size, and examines its determinants before and after the COVID-19 pandemic using Census tract-level data.

La justicia y el ajuste
Nos une una pregunta urgente: ¿qué pasa en nuestra Argentina para que estemos viviendo esto? Para situarnos, recurro a reflexiones del Papa Francisco que, en este año, en dos momentos y de forma contundente, habló para la Argentina. Una fue en febrero, durante la inauguración en la Ciudad de Buenos Aires de la sede del Comité Panamericano de Juezas y Jueces por los Derechos Sociales y la Doctrina Franciscana (COPAJU).
¿Cómo terminar con el gobierno de las minorías parlamentarias? | “De todo laberinto se sale por arriba"
Se respira opresión y autoritarismo. En todos los niveles. Las acciones para desgastar las instituciones democráticas superan los límites de lo posible y de lo tolerable. El gobierno central parece despreciar al Congreso Nacional y no lo disimula. Lo manifiesta a través de discursos en donde insulta en forma soez a los integrantes del cuerpo legislativo, y a través del uso indiscriminado del veto presidencial que torna ilusoria la acción parlamentaria generando un anómalo gobierno de las minorías.
Who is using the internet at faster speeds?
Recent research found that as the share of White non-Hispanics increases, average download and upload speeds decreases. To delve deeper into this finding and better understand the factors affecting internet speeds, this research conducted spatial error regression models looking at different groups across two points in time (2019 and 2022).
An unexpected digital divide? A look at internet speeds and socioeconomic groups
As societies and economies continue to digitize, the need to understand the digital divide beyond binary availability or adoption metrics is increasing. Understanding the quality and performance of home internet—measured by internet speeds—among different socioeconomic groups contributes to the complex digital equity landscape at a time when all U.S. states and territories are completing digital equity plans.
Why Do Older, White, Rural Residents Have Slower Broadband Speeds?
Editor’s Note: Over the past 15 years, Roberto Gallardo has authored or co-authored more than 70 articles for the Daily Yonder. His primary concentration has been on rural broadband. In this submission, Gallardo looks at a finding from his last Daily Yonder article: that rural whites tend to have slower broadband access than people of color. It’s a counterintuitive fact, given that people of color generally tend to have less access – not more – to basic services.
Optimization of iron oxide nanoparticles for MRI-guided magnetic hyperthermia tumor therapy: reassessing the role of shape in their magnetocaloric effect.
Optimization of iron oxide nanoparticles for MRI-guided magnetic hyperthermia tumor therapy: reassessing the role of shape in their magnetocaloric effect. Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles have hogged the limelight in different fields of nanotechnology. Surprisingly, notwithstanding the prominent role played as agents in magnetic hyperthermia treatments, the effects of nanoparticle size and shape on the magnetic hyperthermia performance have not been entirely elucidated yet.
Event Routes - Indianapolis Business Journal
David Rosenberg has served as Secretary of Commerce for the state of Indiana and a member of Governor Eric J. Holcomb’s cabinet since his appointment in August 2023. In his role, Sec. Rosenberg leads the Indiana Economic Development Corporation (IEDC), guiding the strategy and growth of the state’s economy and its related economic development efforts. Rosenberg joined the IEDC in August 2021. Prior to becoming secretary of commerce, he served as the IEDC’s chief operating officer and chief of staff.
Why Are Indiana Residents Not Paying for Home Internet?
Home internet affordability is a key variable in digital equity. However, 12.4% of Indiana survey respondents did not pay for home internet in the previous 12 months. The biggest reasons were related to affordability and not only about home internet service but devices too, as lacking a desktop or laptop was the main reason why 7% of survey respondents did not use the internet daily.
A “Reverse” Digital Divide in Indiana?
The Purdue Center for Regional Development (PCRD) partnered with the Indiana University Center for Survey Research (IU-CSR) to gather data on Indiana residents on several digital equity indicators. A surprising finding was that the difference between Whites and racial/ethnic minorities was not statistically significant but more importantly, among this group of survey respondents, they were “reversed” to what was expected.
The Impact of Remote Work
Working from home became necessary during the COVID-19 pandemic. According to a survey done by the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research during May of 2020, 42% of all US workers worked from home and accounted for two-thirds of the nation’s gross domestic product. Therefore, work from home has become a feasible economic development strategy at the onset of COVID-19. This study gauges the contribution of workers from home in Indiana in 2021 by using the Regional Economic Modeling, Inc.
The Need for Speed: Rural Users Tend to Have Slower Internet Connections
As the federal government, along with states, gets ready to make a once-in-a-lifetime investment in broadband infrastructure, the concept of the digital divide remains somewhat the same as it was back in the mid-1990s, when the term was coined. Namely, who has access to the internet and who does not? Increasingly, being on the “right” side of the divide is moving beyond a yes/no access at home and more toward determining whether a user’s connection satisfies their needs.
Why Do Rural Users Tend to Have Slower Internet Connections?
Who is using faster internet? As the federal government, along with states, gets ready to make a once-in-a-lifetime investment in broadband infrastructure, the concept of the digital divide remains somewhat the same as it was back in the mid-1990s, when the term was coined. Namely, who has access to the internet and who does not? Like anything, the devil is in the details. For decades, a yes/no definition has been used to assert whether somebody has access to the internet.
Rural Counties with More Broadband Tended to Do Better in 2020 Census, Study Shows
Although most of the nation’s rural counties lost population from 2010 to 2020, our analysis of new Census data shows that rural counties with better broadband access tended to do better with population change than counties that lacked access. We can’t say whether broadband access caused the population change or whether it was the other way around – counties with growing populations may have attracted more broadband service.
Rural America's Population Loss Stems from Outmigration, Not Deaths
After gaining about 1 million residents from 2000 to 2010, the nation’s nonmetropolitan population fell by 260,000 residents in the most recent decade. The decrease from 2010 to 2020 was slight — about half a percentage point. And it was fueled by increased domestic migration — movement of people from nonmetropolitan counties to metropolitan ones — not by the number deaths and births.
Remote operating centers in mining: Unlocking their full potential
A mining company recognized that one of its underground mines would benefit substantially from a ROC if it were located at the surface, close to the site. It would allow maintenance, operations, and site management to function in a co-located fashion, and avoid the need for travel to the working section of the mine. Working closely with site leaders, a central team helped implement the ROC to manage a single facility.
COVID-19 lockdowns expose the digital have-nots in rural areas – here's which policies can get them connected Original
The current public health emergency has shown just how critical adequate and affordable broadband infrastructure is for communities and individuals trying to work, access health care and attempt to teach kids from home. Yet over one-fifth of rural Americans lack access to broadband, while some estimates suggest that figure could be much higher.
Rural Counties That Are Active Online Have Higher Incomes
The availability of broadband is a known problem for rural areas, despite several federal programs attempting to help. However, past research into this area has suggested that it is not simply the availability of broadband that matters for rural economies, but rather how many people are actively using it. These studies largely found that adoption rates matter more than availability for rural economic outcomes such as income growth or job gains.
An Immigration Ban Would Have Doubled Rural Population Loss
Explore a full-sized map Who will President Trump’s order halting all international migration into the United States hurt the most? President Trump announced that he would suspend immigration to the U.S. for 60 days. That cut-off presents us with an opportunity to ask which parts of the country would be most affected by an end to international migration. The short answer is rural America.
Internet connectivity in rural Indiana: A quality of service problem
Roberto Gallardo, Ph.D. Assistant Director, Purdue Center for Regional Development; Community and Economics Specialist, Purdue Extension Can we get broadband? Most of us doing community and economic development work throughout the state typically hear this question. This is not surprising. As digital applications are more and more part of our daily lives, communities that do not have access to affordable and adequate internet connectivity are frustrated. This frustration is understandable.
Foreign-Born Residents Account for Most of Rural Population Growth
Click the map for an interactive version. Rural America showed almost no population growth during the first half of this decade. But the little growth that did occur outside the nation’s metropolitan areas came from an increase in foreign-born residents. Rural counties added 161,000 residents from 2010-15, according to Census population figures. Nearly three-quarters of that growth was the result of people who moved to rural America after being born in foreign countries, according to Census data.
Research Report: Rural Counties Face More Challenges Building Remote Workforce
This article is adapted from “Remote Work and the Coronavirus,” by Roberto Gallardo and Richard Florida, published by the Purdue University Center for Rural Development. The complete study is available online. In the wake of the coronavirus crisis, large segments of the U.S. workforce have shifted to remote work. A substantial share of Americans will be working remotely for the foreseeable future. But not all workers and communities are equally prepared for remote work or e-learning.

DSL, the Slowest Technology, Remains the One Most Available in Rural
While the official Federal communications commission statistic that 21.3 million people lacked access to broadband service of at least 25 megabits per second down and 3 megabits per second up (25/3 for short) is well-known, less recognized is the fact that of these, 4.8 million people or 2.2 million housing units had access to no providers (gray areas). Almost 70 percent or 1.5 million of these housing units were in rural areas.
La ley de empleo público necesaria
Estamos a unas semanas de la presentación del gobierno de su propuesta para la ley de empleo público por la que la mayoría de los costarricenses claman. No es el primer intento; tanto en el gobierno de Óscar Arias como en el de Laura Chinchilla, el Mideplán presentó propuestas aunque, desafortunadamente, fueron rechazadas de plano por los sindicatos del sector público con el apoyo de los partidos políticos de oposición.
Rural Download Speeds Are Worse than Reported, Microsoft Study Says
Nearly three-quarters of the downloads hitting Microsoft servers from nonmetropolitan counties are so slow they don’t meet the FCC definition of broadband. Microsoft’s county-level data shows a big gap between what the federal government says is available and what people actually use. Those of us in the broadband world have read the latest Federal Communications Commission (FCC) 2018 broadband deployment report.
New York Times' Rural Economics Analysis Omits a Wealth of Options
The 1950s nirvana of unionized manufacturing jobs is gone forever, no matter how successful the Trump agenda may be. America’s geographic divides are becoming politically entrenched, as this election reminded us — and the economic forces driving the division aren’t going away. We’re not returning to a 1950s nirvana of unionized manufacturing jobs, no matter how successful the Trump agenda may be — and we’re not (yet) flourishing as a harmonious post-modern technological utopia.
Speak Your Piece: Times’ Rural Economics Analysis Omits a Wealth of Options
Speak Your Piece: Times’ Rural Economics Analysis Omits a Wealth of Options New York Times writer Eduardo Porter says it’s time to face “hard truths” about the rural economy – it may not be fixable. Roberto Gallardo, who has worked in rural communities on digital development and inclusion, says Porter’s cold-hearted analysis leaves out lots of different approaches.
#Rural2pt0: Rural Renaissance and Digital Parity
#Rural2pt0: Rural Renaissance and Digital Parity The digital age has the potential to eliminate density and geographic proximity requirements that were so critical during the industrial age. Imagine the following scenario: Most work can be done from anywhere. Robots will produce the majority of goods, including agricultural related products. Local, state and national economies will be monitored in real-time anticipating recessions and taking the necessary steps.

Digital Gap Widens for Rural Elderly, Poor
Digital Gap Widens for Rural Elderly, Poor Broadband access is growing in rural America. But the gap between the metro and nonmetro adoption rate is unchanged over the past seven years. And for some groups, the rural broadband divide is getting worse. EDITOR’S NOTE: Last week in our series on broadband, the authors wrote about broadband availability. This week the authors look at broadband adoption, or the rate at which individuals choose to subscribe to broadband service.
Foreign-Born Residents Account for Most of Rural Population Growth
Foreign-Born Residents Account for Most of Rural Population Growth In a period of very low population growth, an increase in the number of rural residents who were born in foreign countries helped keep the non-urban population stable from 2010 to 2015. Click the map for an interactive version. Rural America showed almost no population growth during the first half of this decade.
Broadband Economic Benefits: Why Invest in Broadband Infrastructure and Adoption?
Broadband Economic Benefits: Why Invest in Broadband Infrastructure and Adoption? The long-term economic benefits of providing broadband access to every rural community exceed the cost of building that infrastructure. And it isn’t even close. Broadband applications are becoming more and more important for residents, businesses, and government as the digital age continues to unfold.
Rural Voter Turnout Drops 18% in 2012
Rural Voter Turnout Drops 18% in 2012 Voter turnout dropped across the country in the 2012 election, but the decline in rural counties was twice that of the nation as a whole. And most of that decline came from Democratic totals. [img:Turnout2012.jpg] Turnout in November’s presidential election was down everywhere compared to 2008. Fewer people voted across the country this year than they did four years earlier.
A Look at the Digital Divide Using 4 Indicators
The digital divide is the number one threat to community economic development in the 21st century. The divide consists of those that have access, know-how, and can afford digital technology versus those that have no access, have limited know-how, and cannot afford digital technology. In a nutshell, the digital divide has similar negative impacts as not knowing how to read and write 100 years ago had on individuals. Those on the wrong side of the divide are being left further behind.
Child Poverty Rises in 2000s
[imgcontainer] [img:childpoverty7010.jpg] [source]Roberto Gallardo/Southern Rural Development Center[/source] We grouped counties into categories — rural, urban and those with small cities (between 10,000 and 50,000). This chart shows the change in child (under 18 years of age) poverty rates in these groups of counties. [/imgcontainer] The number of children living in poverty in rural communities increased by 200,000 between 2000 and 2010, according to the latest U.S. Census Bureau figures.
U2: The Real Unemployment Rate
[imgcontainer right] [img:BishopBaraga.jpg] [source]Christopher Bills[/source] Bishop Frederic Baraga (1797 – 1868) was called the “Snowshoe Priest” because he would travel by foot across what is now the Upper Peninsula of Michigan during its heavy winters. Bishop Baraga founded a mission in L’Anse, Michigan, where this statue stands in his honor. Baraga County has the highest level of unemployment and underemployment in the nation.
Rural America in the 2000s: Age
[imgcontainer] [img:Lessthan25Yrs528.jpg] [source]Roberto Gallardo[/source] This map shows whether the proportion of young people (under 25) increased or decreased in rural counties between 2000 and 2009. Red counties saw a decrease in the percentage of their populations under 25. Green counties saw the proportion of that population get bigger. Click the map to see a bigger version.

Rural, Urban Differences in Health Insurance
[imgcontainer] [img:HealthPoverty.jpg] [source]Roberto Gallardo[/source] We tend to think that health insurance is a function of employment. But health insurance rates are more closely tied to levels of poverty, especially in cities. [/imgcontainer] We’ll make a mistake in revamping our health care system if we think greater employment is the key to getting more people covered by health insurance. It may not be.
