Choosing an internet service provider after making a move to another city is at the top of any mover’s to-do list<\/a>. Depending on what city you’re living in, Google’s Fiber internet and television services may be an excellent option. The Google Fiber product is among the best out there for true fiber internet<\/a> service. Let’s take a closer look at where Google Fiber is available, and what it offers in terms of bundles and cost.<\/p>\n\n\n

Google Fiber plans and pricing<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Google entered the ISP competition with a lot of promises, advertising some of the fastest internet speeds<\/a> of any internet service provider on the market. Here’s what they’re currently offering:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Package<\/b><\/td>Price<\/b>*<\/td>Download speed<\/b><\/td>Upload speed<\/b><\/td><\/tr>

All Google Fiber plans come with unlimited data and no contracts. That means you can cancel your service at any point without getting hit with early termination fees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where is Google Fiber available?<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, Google Fiber isn’t in every city just yet. The good news is that Google Fiber has a pretty solid foothold in almost every region of the continental United States, and it currently reaches 19 states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Right now, Google has deployed its services to the following U.S. cities\/metropolitan areas and more:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Google Fiber reviews<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Moving to any of the cities that have Google Fiber as an internet provider is exciting, but there are some caveats to all of the positive reviews we’ve heard about the products. The first concern for both current and prospective consumers is that the actual service hasn’t been fully deployed in the areas where Google advertises coverage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    There are a number of examples of initial rollouts of Google Fiber taking place in a given metro area, only to be delayed or stopped before full coverage in that region has taken place. In some areas, a different rollout strategy to get services sooner to consumers failed, as was the case<\/a> in the Louisville metro area. The Raleigh\/Durham\/Chapel Hill metro area (commonly known as the Triangle) is also dealing with an incomplete deployment of Google services, resulting in a number of unhappy prospective customers<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In the neighborhoods where Google Fiber has been established, it’s a worthy competitor to other traditional ISPs. But there’s also the greater issue of Google Fiber having difficulty gaining a foothold in city markets where Verizon, Comcast, and other providers are already established. Residents of New York City, Washington, DC, and other larger hubs on the eastern seaboard are still waiting for Google to make inroads. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Even though Google has had its fair share of growing pains deploying the next generation of blazing-fast broadband services, it’s provided those that have access to the platform with the unparalleled internet speed<\/a> and flexibility that comes with gigabit connectivity to the internet. If you’re moving to any of the areas that Google has the service established in, it’s well worth the time to consider Google’s offerings for yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
