I happened to recently stumble upon a report[1] describing FTTH/B deployments in Europe. Personally I find that much more interesting/meaningful than simple Speedtest average (as others have noted its issues). I think Spains good result (87% coverage) there is fairly impressive, especially considering that it as a country has plenty of low-density regions.

For comparison, the best data I found[2] on US FTTH situation is that there are about 40M homes passed and 14M subscribers for FTTH out of 125M households, giving 32% coverage and 11% penetration.
