5G’s Impact on Economic Growth
The typical belief that most residents of rural America are work in agriculture industry is wrong
A recent study found that under 5% of the rural workforce is employed in agriculture and only around 15% in manufacturing, while the majority work in small local businesses. In fact, small businesses are a more important economic force in rural areas than in cities.
However rural America is 10 times more likely to have substandard internet access compared to urban areas equalling up to 42 million Americans being underserved.…
Roughly six-in-ten rural Americans (58%) believe access to high-speed internet is a problem in their area
The lack of fast reliable internet access handicaps rural America’s economic growth in a multitude of ways.
First, certain business can’t or won’t move to rural areas because they can’t get the internet connectivity they need. Recently, COVID-19 has force many rural companies to sent employees home to work and found it was impossible for them to work remotely because they didn’t have home internet connectivity.

The use of 5G will allow students immediate access to educational content without the common hindrances of Wi-Fi connectivity. The students will be able to technologies that 5G powers which will result in an improved range and quality of educational activities and teaching methods
5G’s Impact of Healthcare
Rural populations on average older and less healthy, and as rural healthcare services are is less available compared to those residing in urban areas. As a result, the need for telehealth access is even more vital. close. However, most rural residents lack of connectivity means they can’t use telehealth, video chat with medical professionals, health monitoring devices, online health portals, etc.

5G can help rural communities gain internet coverage because it uses more of the radio spectrum than 4G. Rural areas can immediately take advantage of low-band 5G, which can connect to towers hundreds of miles away, extend coverage to millions who couldn’t tap in to 4G networks, and still move data several times faster than 4G.
Ultimately, local governments should be eager to find ways to invest in 5G for the sake of the rural economy, and rural residents looking for high-speed, reliable internet service.
