The 92% figure for Dish may understate what subscribers in Baton Rouge experience after accounting for roaming agreements.

Baton Rouge Cell Signal Strength

There are 2,054 map hexes within the census-defined boundaries of Baton Rouge. The table below shows the proportion of hexes at various levels of signal strength. Where both 4G and 5G coverage is available, data is drawn from whichever technology offers a stronger signal.

Network	Strong	Decent	Weak	None
AT&T	26%	67%	7%	0%
T-Mobile	62%	34%	4%	0%
