Internet infrastructure upgrades are very unevenly distributed, and you can find horror stories all over the US. But when I got online in the 1990s, a T1 (1.544 Mb/s symmetric) was extravagant and almost impossible to imagine for a home user. I now have 1 Gb/s symmetric at home.
I doubt whether the entire uplink of my first ISP was 1 Gb/s. Many colleges' uplinks sure weren't.
Somebody's out there making Internet infrastructure better some of the time.
