Northampton Town Centre & Semilong is ranked 32 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.
Around Northampton town centre and Semilong, the broadband question is not whether you can get a decent line but whether you can get a fast one. 99.6% of addresses clear 30Mbps, yet only 84.9% can order gigabit speeds, the second-lowest share in the town. Where you sit matters.
Ofcom's latest data shows the gap clearly. Superfast coverage across the area's 5,749 premises is nearly universal at 99.6%, but 14.7% of addresses top out between 30 and 300Mbps, the largest middle band anywhere in Northampton. Gigabit availability lands at 84.9%, 12 points under the town average, ranking 32 of 33.
Town-centre housing is the pattern behind it: flats over shops, subdivided terraces and converted buildings take longer to wire for full fibre than ordinary streets. The contrast with the area's edges is sharp. St Michael's Road reaches 99.3% and Stornton & Sixfields 96.8%, while Cliftonville & Rushmere shares the centre's position at 85.6%.
There is still a working market at most addresses: 94 deals from 17 providers at our last check, built on full fibre, part-fibre, ADSL and 4G home broadband. Sky advertised the fastest line, at up to 5 Gbps. The spread between buildings is wide, so run your own postcode before drawing any conclusion from the area averages.

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.
