Not necessarily... 5ghz N is not as good at penetrating walls due to its higher frequency. If you run it at 2.4ghz you'll overlap with G and could get interference.
Of course each situation is different and should be evaluated individually.
In any case, unless you've monitored and identified G as your limitation, it should do fine for the vast majority of home users. My movie streaming spikes over 80mbps routinely, so I had to move that segment to N to avoid stuttering and pauses.
