Is Gigabit Internet in a City Near You?

It’s not fair! Fast gigabit internet is on the rise, and is currently available to governments, educational institutions and large businesses, so why is it more difficult to get fast connection for public use? Well don’t worry, because America is taking matters into their own hands and installing fast gigabit internet in cities across the nation for the public to enjoy. Why? It’s because its part of individual cities plans for economic development and ways to attract companies and tech industries to use for competitive purposes.

So what exactly is this fast gigabit internet? Let’s put it in perspective, if you want to download a two-hour, high-definition movie it may take you on average 25 minutes to download with your average high-speed broadband connection. With this new ultrahigh-speed fiber-optic connection you can transfer data at one gigabit NOT gigabyte per second. This means that your 25 minute download will turn into a 33 second download. This doesn’t just stand for movie downloads, this is for any download or data transfer that your business or personal computer will undergo.

So now that we have you all excited, let’s look at what cities have already invested in gigabit internet, and what cities are planning on it. Below is a list of cities across the nation, hopefully there is one by you!
