If usage is relatively light in an area so more customers are happily co-existing on kit that makes bandwidth cheaper, if it's an area full of monster users more upgrades and in turn higher cost per GB.

Obviously we can't charge each area differently, that'd be an absolute PITA.
OK, taken that into consideration, but there is no average cost you know of?
