They must not have a server near you or their anycast isn't working right. They claim they have 70 locations online and will have over 160 in 2018.
I like that it's run by a non-profit and that they won't sell your browsing data to marketers. I switched to it a few days ago and it's been solid so far with similar ping times to Google DNS and OpenDNS.
