When I was looking for property in WA and OR there was absolutely no way to get internet (even DSL was a big maybe) outside of towns.

- Miner49er 6y agoYou normally have to get wireless internet, as long as you are in range.

In my county, you can get hooked up if you foot the bill to extend the network to your property and find a retail provider to service your account. There's an online map that shows where the fiber currently is, you'll save a bunch of money on fiber construction if you build near where it already is.

When I moved up here from the bay area recently, I had to rent a second house in the nearest city 30 miles south because there is absolutely no terrestrial internet service even within the city limits of my ~700 person town.
