It depends. I’ve only heard good things from my parents about the municipal offerings in my hometown in rural-ish Iowa. Cheaper, faster, better customer service than the existing private ISP I had growing up.
- j_walter 5y agoI'm sure it depends on the size and efficiency of the municipality...but the ones around Portland are about as incompetent as they come. Don't forget that many are subsidized...so yes what they are paying monthly may seem to be cheaper there is probably tax money being funneled to that municipality for offering broadband as well. https://ocio.iowa.gov/broadband-grants https://ocio.iowa.gov/broadband-grants Lots of money being thrown at the startup costs... Honestly they might be better off using that money to buy everyone StarLink dishes...the speeds are going to be better than what a lot of them are getting.
