Most of the first shell of sats were launched into a 53 degree orbit. If you look at https://satellitemap.space/ you see a high concentration of sats at 53 degrees, then very few above that latitude. Above that (alaska) are served by polar orbit sats, but there are fewer.
More recent launces cover the 43 deg.
The more sats they launch the more bandwidth they have. Also, the newer sats V2 mini have about 4x the bandwidth as the older v1.0 and v1.5.
But yes we definitely share BW with those in our cell (15 miles wide) and also with the whole sat in general (20 Gbps). Some people live in areas at full capacity (until more sats are launched)
