Fresno in California
Fresno has one cable network that reaches almost every address and a fiber network that reaches fewer than half. Xfinity reports service at 98.6% of the city's homes and businesses and is the only wired provider offering 100/20 Mbps at 54.3%; fiber, nearly all of it AT&T's, reaches 39.6%. What sets Fresno apart is a regional fixed wireless company, unWired Broadband, that reports 100/20 Mbps service at 99.8%1 of locations.
Xfinity at almost every address, AT&T fiber at two in five
The FCC counts 145,2021 broadband serviceable locations inside Fresno's 2020 city limits, as of June 30, 2026 (file revision of November 10, 2026). Each is a house, an apartment building or a business site; an apartment building counts once, which is why the count is smaller than the number of households. The table lists the providers that report service at the largest share of them.

Source: FCC, National Broadband Map, data as of June 30, 2026. Share of the area's broadband serviceable locations where the provider reports service as of June 30, 2026. "Only wired option" is the share of locations where it is the single wired provider at 100/20 Mbps. Provider-reported and challengeable; speeds are advertised maximums, not measured; no prices. Satellite providers (HughesNet, Viasat, Starlink) report service at nearly every location and are left out of the table.
Two wired networks cover most of the city. Xfinity reports cable at 98.3% of locations; it is the only cable provider in the city and advertises up to 2 Gbps where it has fiber, which is 0.2% of locations. AT&T reports service at 87.7%, but by three technologies: fiber at 39.6% of locations, and DSL over copper telephone lines or fixed wireless at most of the rest. It offers 100/20 Mbps at 46.4%1.
"Reports service" means the provider tells the FCC it serves the location or could connect it within ten business days of a request. The claims are the providers' own and can be challenged on the FCC map.
One fast wire for half the city
Wired service of at least 100/20 Mbps is reported at 98.8% of locations. At 54.4%, exactly one wired provider offers that speed, a share that ranks tied for 56th highest among large cities and above California's 43.2%. In almost all of those places the single wire is Xfinity's, which is the only wired 100/20 option at 54.3%1 of locations.
Source: FCC, National Broadband Map, data as of June 30, 2026. Different wired providers (fiber, cable or DSL; FCC provider IDs) reporting 100 Mbps down and 20 Mbps up or more at the same location. Fixed wireless and satellite are not counted.

The share with two or more wired providers at 100/20 Mbps, 44.3%, is close to the share where AT&T offers that speed, 46.4%: where AT&T has no fiber, Xfinity is usually alone. That share was 37.2%2 in June 2022. Three or more wired choices are rare, at 0.0%1.
Fiber below the state and the country
Fiber to the premises reaches 39.6% of Fresno's locations. Among the 343 US cities of 100,000 or more, Fresno ranks 62nd lowest on that measure. It rose from 31.2% in June 2022, an increase of 8.4 percentage points, and by 1.3 percentage points in the six months since December 31, 2025. Over the same four years DSL fell from 58.1%2 to 52.8%1 of locations.
Fiber here is mostly a one-network affair. 4 companies report fiber somewhere in the city, but apart from AT&T the largest fiber footprint is Xfinity's, at 0.2% of locations. Two or more fiber networks overlap at just 0.2%1 of locations.
Other cities in the San Joaquin Valley have less fiber than Fresno, and Sacramento has more:

Clovis, which borders Fresno, reports fiber at 34.9%, Bakersfield at 35.5% and Visalia at 27.3%; Sacramento reaches 60.1%. Fresno's share of locations with a single fast wire is the lowest of the San Joaquin Valley cities in the table, though well above Sacramento's 34.0%1.
A fixed wireless layer under the whole city
Fixed wireless sends service by radio from an antenna to a receiver on the building. In Fresno, regional companies as well as the national mobile carriers report it across most of the city. Licensed fixed wireless at 100/20 Mbps or more is reported at 92.3% of locations, the 26th highest share among large cities, and unlicensed fixed wireless, which uses shared radio bands, at 80.9%, against 35.3%1 statewide.
- unWired Broadband reports service at 100.0% of locations and 100/20 Mbps at 99.8%, advertising up to 1 Gbps. It reports service in 1 state, California.

These are coverage claims, not capacity. Each antenna's bandwidth is shared, so a company can report a whole neighborhood and still limit how many homes it connects. For 1,811 locations (1.3%1) fixed wireless is the only way to get 100/20 Mbps, because no wired provider offers that speed there. No location in the city depends on satellite alone.
Upload speeds changed more than the wires
The fastest advertised download is 2 Gbps or more at 82.3% of Fresno's locations, against 16.7% in June 2022, when 81.9%2 topped out at 940 Mbps or more but below 2 Gbps. AT&T advertises up to 5 Gbps1 on fiber.

Uploads moved further. The share of locations with wired service of at least 100 Mbps in both directions went from 31.2%2 in June 2022, roughly the fiber share then, to 83.4%, including a rise of 4.9 percentage points since December 2025. Fiber reaches only 39.6%1, so most of those locations get the 100/100 offer over another wire, and Xfinity's cable network is the only other wire that reaches nearly all of them.

The FCC's gigabit tier, 1,000 Mbps down and 100 up over any ground-based technology, fixed wireless included, followed: 31.2%2 of locations in 2022, 78.8%4 in December 2025 and 91.8% now. The 13.0 percentage points gain in the latest six months is the 20th highest1 among large cities. All of these are maximums the providers advertise, not measured speeds, and the FCC data contain no prices; each provider's broadband facts label lists its plans and prices.
Fewer Fresno households without internet than in 2019
The Census Bureau's American Community Survey counts households and what they subscribe to, not what is available. In 2025, 6.8% of Fresno households had no internet subscription (margin of error ±1.2 percentage points), down from 15.4% (±1.7 percentage points) in 2019. Subscriptions to cable, fiber or DSL rose from 67.1%5 to 75.7% (±2.1 percentage points3). Both changes are larger than the survey's margins.
Source: FCC, National Broadband Map, data as of June 30, 2026; Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2025 1-year detailed tables. Availability is a share of locations as of June 30, 2026 (FCC); subscriptions are a share of households from the American Community Survey, 2025 (whiskers: 90% margin of error). Different units and dates: read the gap as a sign, not an exact number.

Checking one address in Fresno
The figures on this page describe the whole area. Which providers report service at a single home or apartment is shown only on the FCC's own map: search the address at broadbandmap.fcc.gov. If a provider is listed there but cannot actually connect you within ten business days, or the location is missing or misplaced, the map has a button to file a challenge; providers must respond, and corrections flow into later releases. Prices and plans are not part of the FCC data: each provider must show them on its broadband facts label at the point of sale.
