Broadband rose 14.0 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 73.1% to 87.2% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.9pp).

Broader trend
All similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. Wilmington started among the weakest third of similar-size cities, so some rebound is expected; still, the improvement is sustained and worth investigating.
