FCC data as of 2025-12-31
Total broadband serviceable units: 179,940
Ground infrastructure reaches 99.7% at the benchmark, close to the 100.0% headline, so satellite is not masking a material gap here.

Shares of all broadband serviceable units in the total partition, residential class.
Headline versus ground truth
| Lens | Share | Units |
|---|---|---|
| Any technology, including satellite | 100.0% | 179,940 |
| Ground infrastructure only | 99.7% | 179,433 |
| Satellite is the only option at the benchmark | 0.3% | 507 |
Coverage by speed tier
| Tier | Share | Estimated units |
|---|---|---|
| 0.2/0.2 Mbps | 100.0% | 179,940 |
| 10/1 Mbps | 100.0% | 179,940 |
| 25/3 Mbps | 100.0% | 179,940 |
| 100/20 Mbps | 100.0% | 179,940 |
| 250/25 Mbps | 100.0% | 179,940 |
| 1000/100 Mbps | 62.0% | 111,490 |
Tiers are cumulative: a unit counted at a higher tier is also counted at every lower tier, so these rows must not be summed.
Fiber and upload capability
The published summary reports six fixed download/upload pairs and no symmetric tier above 0.2/0.2 Mbps, so symmetric service cannot be measured from it directly. Upload capability is shown through the highest tier, which requires 100 Mbps upstream, and fiber is reported separately because it is the technology that typically delivers matched speeds. A symmetric share is derivable from the FCC location-level availability files, which carry each location's advertised upload speed, but that product is roughly 973 million rows per vintage and is not ingested here.
Every technology
How this compares
Ranked 5 of 14 within State 25 on any terrestrial coverage at the benchmark.
Ranking deliberately uses ground infrastructure rather than the headline. Satellite reaches nearly everywhere, so ranking on it puts most areas at 100% and separates nothing.
