Fewer Homes Online In Devon

The number of homes with internet access in Devon's gone down in the last year, according to a new government report.

It estimates that across the South West, 70% of houses are now online, but that figure was 72% last year.

We're the only region in the country where the rate seems to have fallen, and already have one of the lowest percentages of online homes in the country.

Only Yorkshire & the North East come out below us. London's top with 83% of houses connected to the net.
