Boca Raton in Florida
Three wired networks serve Boca Raton at scale: Xfinity's cable almost everywhere, AT&T's fiber at 49.7% of homes and businesses and Hotwire Communications' fiber at 13.0%. Fiber from any provider reaches 61.5%, below Florida's 68.4%1, and Xfinity is the only fast wire at a third of locations. The city's households are among the most likely of any large US city to subscribe to a wired connection.
Three networks a home can order
The FCC counts 25,454 homes and businesses inside Boca Raton's city limits, as drawn for the 2020 Census. In provider filings as of June 30, 2026 (revision of November 10, 2026), Xfinity's cable network covers 99.5% of them and offers 100/20 Mbps or more at all of those. AT&T files something at 94.2%, but only about half the city gets fiber from it (49.7%, advertised up to 5 Gbps); the rest of its footprint is copper DSL or fixed wireless. Hotwire Communications files fiber at 13.0%1.

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, Starlink) report service at nearly every location and are left out of the table.
A listing means the company told the FCC it could install standard service there within ten business days. Anyone can challenge a listing on the FCC National Broadband Map, which is also where to check a single address.
Fiber at three locations in five
Fiber from any provider is reported at 61.5% of Boca Raton's locations, below Florida's 68.4%, and the city ranks 126th lowest among the 343 cities of 100,000 or more on that measure. The rise since 2022, 24.9 percentage points, ranks 129th highest. Two or more fiber networks reach only 2.1% of locations (5321), mostly where AT&T and Hotwire overlap. Lightpath, filed under Optimum's name, also lists fiber across a large part of the city, but only as business service, which this page does not count.

Hotwire's fiber, rare elsewhere in Florida
Hotwire Communications is a minor name in most Florida cities and a sizable one here. Its fiber covers 13.0% of Boca Raton's locations, compared with 3.4% in Pompano Beach, 0.6% in Coral Springs and 0.2% in West Palm Beach. Among Florida's large cities only Fort Myers, at 14.4%, has a wider Hotwire footprint. Most of its Boca Raton listings are filed as residential service, with an advertised maximum of 8 Gbps1 in both directions.
Hotwire's footprint has barely changed since 2022; what changed around it is AT&T. Locations where both file fiber are almost the only places in the city where a household has three wired providers at 100/20 Mbps, Xfinity, AT&T fiber and Hotwire, and three or more wired providers reach only 3.2%1 of locations.
Where Xfinity stands alone
Wired service of 100/20 Mbps or more reaches 99.6% of locations; just 94 have none. Xfinity is the only wired provider at that speed for 33.3%1 of locations, roughly a third of the city.
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.

| Florida | 3.8% | 30.2% | 54.2% | 11.8% |
Those are mostly locations where AT&T still serves over copper. DSL is on file at 79.3% of locations, which ranks 25th highest among large cities, and most of AT&T's DSL listings here advertise less than 100 Mbps down. AT&T reaches 100/20 Mbps at 59.3%1 of locations, a little beyond its fiber, because a minority of its DSL lines are filed at that tier.

What changed since 2022
The first National Broadband Map, as of June 30, 2022, had fiber at 36.5%2 of Boca Raton's locations, almost all of it AT&T's or Hotwire's. AT&T's fiber footprint has grown since, and the fiber share rose by another 4.3 percentage points1 between December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2026.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fiber available | 36.5% | 57.2% | 61.5% | 24.9 pts |

| Fixed wireless 100/20 | 8.7% | 54.7% | 60.4% | 51.6 pts |
Upload speeds moved on the cable side. In 2022 Xfinity filed all but a handful of its Boca Raton cable listings at 1.2 Gbps down and 35 Mbps up. In 2026 most of them are filed at 2 Gbps down and 250 Mbps up, while a smaller part still carries the old tier. That is why gigabit service with uploads of at least 100 Mbps (the FCC's 1,000/100 tier) went from 36.2%2 of locations to 95.8%, and why the fastest advertised download is 2 Gbps or more at 95.8%1. These are advertised maximums, not measurements.
The single-wire share fell from 49.6%2 to 33.4%1 over the same four years, mostly as AT&T fiber reached locations that had only Xfinity at 100/20 Mbps.
Verizon's home internet spread fastest
Only 3 providers file licensed fixed wireless, the FCC category that holds 5G home internet, in Boca Raton, which ties the city for the fewest among large cities. Together they cover 96.8% of locations. Verizon now lists about five times as many Boca Raton locations as in 2022, the largest gain of any provider, reaching 92.2% with up to 300 Mbps advertised. T-Mobile lists 86.4%, topping out at 100 Mbps1. AT&T, the third, files fixed wireless mostly at addresses outside its fiber area.
Fixed wireless at 100/20 Mbps reaches 60.4% of locations, above Florida's 42.1%1. A tower sector's capacity is shared among its users, so a carrier's listing marks where it offers service, not a promise that every home can join.
The lowest phone-only share of any large city
The Census Bureau's American Community Survey counts households, not locations. In 2025, 5.2% of Boca Raton households relied on a cellular data plan alone (margin of error ±2.1 percentage points), the lowest point estimate among the large cities surveyed; the Florida figure is 13.0%. Subscriptions to cable, fiber or DSL stood at 89.8% (±2.8 percentage points), the 4th highest4 share among those cities. Neighboring estimates can overlap within their margins, so the ranks are approximate, but the gap with West Palm Beach and Pompano Beach in the table below is wider than the margins.
