In the dark: Hoosier rural residents left without adequate internet speeds

A statewide analysis found 93,000 Hoosiers live in near "internet darkness," according to a study conducted by Purdue University agricultural economists. The state announced earlier this month that it will commit SIOO million to bringing affordable highspeed fiber optic broadband access to un-served and under-served rural areas of the state, part of a $1 billion infrastructure plan

Gov. Suzanne Crouch during a visit to Kokomo in early September. Scott Rudd, director of broadband opportunities,

a new position created last month in Crouch's office, will help oversee the expansion of high-speed broadband into rural areas. He said state officials are currently in the middle of talking to community leaders and internet providers across the state to determine how best to distribute the new grant program so that it creates the biggest impact in rural Indiana. The state specifically wants to help fund new infrastructure that will allow residents to access 100-mbps-download

speeds and 10-mbs-upload speeds. Those speeds can be reached through laying down fiber-optic lines. There is also some wireless technology which could accommodate those speeds. Although 100-mbps speed is faster than an average broadband user needs, the goal is to ensure the money spent now in installing the infrastructure will be sufficient for Internet needs well into the future. " * "That's the kind of high-;] speed internet that is somewhat future proof," Rudd said.
