What qualifies as a good typing speed depends on the population you're examining: the general population or professionals. The average person types between 38 and 40 words per minute -- between 190 and 200 characters per minute.However, professional typists type a lot faster on average -- upwards of 65 to 75 WPM.A good typing speed compared to the general population would be over 40 WPM, but compared to professionals it would be in the 75 WPM range.owever, professional typists type a lot faster on average -- upwards of 65 to 75 WPM.
