Do installed cables, switches etc. have a shorter lifetime in the cities, such that they'll be replaced more often and thus will tend to be newer and better? Does fibre face less competition from installed alternatives in the cities than in the countryside, such that digging is more likely to be profitable?
I live in the city. This street was supplied with 20-100Mbps DSL early on. Now the ISPs don't want to dig here, because selling fibre against the installed DSL connections is so difficult.
Sometimes they are caused by property owners not allowing entry into a block.
Eventually those properties will have to be dealt with, but a legal change may be necessary.

My street has no Fiber deals. The one just around the corner has it rolled out since last year.
Coverage seems vast but sparse
