Sweden has lower density and urbanization than the US, and it has radically better broadband.

Sweden is a unique case because of its population distribution. Approximately 78% of Sweden's population resides on its southern coast; the southern coast is approximately 1700 km in length. In the US, approximately 50% of the population lives on the lengthier Atlantic and Gulf coastlines. The remaining 50% lives in the inner states, on the Pacific coast, and in the two non-contiguous states.
