Possibly due to there not being a great deal of traffic? Whereas in urban areas there are a large number of users all fighting for bandwidth...
We have a BT Business connection that guarantees a lower "contention" ratio" = the ratio of the potential maximum demand to the actual bandwidth. The higher the contention ratio, the greater the number of users that may be trying to use the actual bandwidth at any one time and, therefore, the lower the effective bandwidth offered, especially at peak times. we are guaranteed better than 20:1
It is also unlimited capacity and costs us £27.00 a month, doesn't include anything else. My employer pays, whch is good.
Another bigt advantage is if there is a fault the call centre is in the UK and when we had a fault the service is stunning. they called back when they said they would.
As with so much you get what you pay for!
