Abington is ranked 6 of Northampton's 33 neighbourhoods for gigabit-capable broadband, based on the share of homes and businesses that can order a gigabit-capable (1,000Mbps+) service today.
Abington's Victorian terraces carry thoroughly modern wiring. 99.8% of premises can order gigabit broadband, sixth-best in Northampton, with no address below 10Mbps and 18 providers selling at our sampled postcode. The contrast with Cliftonville next door is 14 points.
Ofcom's latest data shows 99.8% of Abington's 3,759 premises with a gigabit-capable option, 12 points above the UK average, with superfast coverage at 99.9% and a capped middle band of just 0.2%. Nothing sits below 10Mbps or the legal minimum. The terraced grid that makes the area popular with renters and first-time buyers also made it straightforward to wire.
Most surrounding areas read the same, from Kingsley Park & Racecourse at 99.6% to Phippsville at 99.8%, with Cliftonville & Rushmere the exception at 85.6%. The local market spans cable, full fibre, part-fibre and both hub types, 144 deals in all at our last check, with Sky advertising the town's fastest line at 5 Gbps.
The opportunity here is the gap between what the streets can do and what households actually buy. Across the wider district only 31% of fibre-ready premises have taken full fibre. If your contract dates from before the build, run your postcode and compare on whole-contract cost; the line outside has probably overtaken the deal you are paying for.

The fastest service each of the neighbourhood's 3,759 homes and businesses could order, from Ofcom's address-level availability data.
No premises left behind: every home and business here can get at least 10Mbps, and none falls below the legal broadband minimum.
Ofcom doesn't publish full fibre (FTTP) coverage at neighbourhood level, so for Abington we show gigabit-capable coverage, which counts both full fibre and Virgin Media's cable network.
Across the Northampton North constituency, 94.6% of premises can get full fibre, but only 31% of those who can have actually switched to it (take-up measured across West Northamptonshire). If you're one of the rest, you may be paying old-network prices for old-network speeds.

Coverage figures are built from Ofcom's address-level availability data, aggregated to this neighbourhood and weighted by the number of premises in each small area. Deal and provider information comes from Switchity's own checks at local postcodes. Availability always varies between individual addresses, so treat the figures as the neighbourhood picture, not a promise for your line.
