The forecast indicates a steady decline in the number of households with internet access in the UK from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the actual value stood at a higher level than projected for the following years. Year-on-year, this marks a continuous decrease, with each year experiencing a roughly 5% decline. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflects a similar downward trend, averaging a decrease over the five-year period.
Future trends to watch for include potential technological advancements that may reverse this trend, such as the rollout of more affordable internet services or public initiatives to increase access among underrepresented communities.
