Overview
Israel's internet users stood at 87.35% in 2025, a decline of +0.83% from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 87.35% by 2025. Israel ranked 96th globally.
Israel’s share of internet users rose from a negligible 0.11 percent in 1990 to 87.35 percent in 2025, placing the country 96th globally and positioning it just below peers such as Mexico (87.41 percent) and Peru (87.03 percent). The rapid expansion accelerated after the mid‑2000s, reaching an all‑time peak of 91.85 percent in 2022 before a modest decline to the current level. The early‑stage trough in 1990 reflects the nascent state of broadband infrastructure, while the post‑2000 surge aligns with widespread adoption of mobile broadband and government initiatives to promote digital inclusion. Over the 36‑year coverage period, the growth rate has slowed as saturation approaches, suggesting that future increases will depend on extending high‑speed access to underserved populations and encouraging adoption of emerging technologies such as 5G and fiber‑to‑the‑home. Continued policy focus on connectivity could sustain modest gains and prevent a reversal of the upward trajectory.
