Where Metronet reports fiber service

All fiber, in 19 states

In the National Broadband Map as of June 30, 2026 (file revision of November 10, 2026), Metronet lists 2,888,142 broadband serviceable locations: houses, apartment buildings and small businesses where it says it could connect service within ten business days. All of them are fiber to the premises, and all are filed at 100/20 Mbps or more (2,888,142). The fastest advertised download is 5 Gbps¹, the same top tier in almost every city it serves.

Among the 1,461 brands that report fiber anywhere, Metronet has the fourth-largest footprint by locations, 2.9 million, behind Frontier (6.9 million) and ahead of Spectrum (2.7 million¹). Unlike the larger names on that list, Metronet has no copper, cable or wireless network in its filing, so the question "is Metronet available here" has a single answer: fiber or nothing.

The filer is Metronet Holdings, LLC. It reports under two brand names, Metronet and Vexus Fiber, and this page counts both. Since July 24, 2025, Metronet has been owned by a joint venture of T-Mobile and KKR, with T-Mobile Fiber handling residential customers; the FCC data as of June 30, 2026 still list the network under the Metronet filer, separate from T-Mobile's own filing. In that release Metronet codes its whole network as business service only, while T-Mobile files no fiber at those homes; because T-Mobile's annual report to the SEC says Metronet's residential customers moved to T-Mobile, this site counts Metronet's listings as residential service (see the methodology).

A network of mid-size cities

Statewide shares make Metronet look small: 5.1% of Texas, 6.5% of Illinois, 2.4%¹ of Florida. Those averages hide a pattern of near-complete coverage in particular cities and almost none in between.

Among the 343 cities with 100,000 or more residents, Metronet reports fiber at 93.4% of locations in Davenport, 93.2% in Abilene, 90.9% in Amarillo, 89.8% in Lexington and 89.8% in Rochester, Minnesota. In some large cities the filing is close to empty: 14 locations in Detroit, 14 in Toledo, 7¹ in Naperville.

Suburbs follow the same rule. Around Indianapolis, Metronet covers 74.5% of Fishers and 73.5% of Carmel, but 16.1% of Indianapolis itself. In Oklahoma it reaches 44.6% of Broken Arrow and 1.9%¹ of neighboring Tulsa.

Iowa, the state where it reaches the most

By share of a state's locations, Iowa stands apart: Metronet reports fiber at 21.4% of all Iowa locations, ahead of Indiana (13.0%) and Minnesota (8.7%). Besides Davenport, it covers 84.7% of Des Moines. Across all providers, Iowa's share of locations with fiber went from 44.5%² in June 2022 to 77.5%, the 8th highest¹ of any state; the FCC data do not split that statewide change by provider.

By count, the order is different. Texas has the most Metronet locations (534,571), followed by Indiana (352,855) and Iowa (292,263). In some states, almost the entire footprint is one or two cities. Of the 54,395 Virginia locations, 54,394 are in Norfolk. In New Mexico, Albuquerque (25,542) and Las Cruces (13,135) account for nearly all of 39,292. At the other end, the filing lists 3 locations in Connecticut and 2¹ in Mississippi.

+1,967,110 locations added since the first map

Between June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2026, Metronet's reported footprint grew by 1,967,110² locations, all of them fiber. In the latest six months alone, since December 31, 2025, it added +275,470⁴.

The state table shows two kinds of growth. In the states where Metronet already filed in 2022, such as Michigan, Iowa and North Carolina, the footprint widened; in Kentucky the count barely moved. In Texas, Louisiana, Virginia, Colorado, Nebraska, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arizona and Missouri, the 2022 filing lists no locations at all.

Not all of that is new construction. A provider's filing can change because it builds, because it buys or merges with another network, or because it reorganizes which entity files for which area; the FCC also revises its list of locations with every release. In Amarillo, for example, fiber from any provider already reached 79.0%² of locations in June 2022, when this filer reported nothing in Texas. The FCC data record what each filer reported, not why it changed.

Norfolk: fiber from almost none to almost all

Norfolk shows how quickly a city's map can change. In June 2022, fiber from any provider was reported at 2.2%² of Norfolk's locations. By June 30, 2026 the share was 89.6%, and Metronet's own filing covers 88.7%. The share of locations with two or more wired providers at 100/20 Mbps is now 85.0%¹.

Des Moines followed a similar path, from 27.4% of locations with fiber in 2022 to 93.6%¹. In Rochester, Minnesota, and Lexington, by contrast, fiber already covered 90.9% and 90.7%² of locations in 2022, and the share has stayed about the same.

Rarely the only wired choice

At 75,139 locations nationwide, Metronet is the only wired provider offering 100/20 Mbps. That is a small part of its footprint: in the cities where Metronet is largest, nearly every location also has at least one other wired provider at that speed (the last column of the table below). The share of all locations where it is the only wired option is 0.9% in Minnesota and 0.2% in Iowa; among large cities it is highest in Abilene (5.6%) and Lubbock (3.0%¹).

What differs from city to city is whether Metronet is the only fiber. In Amarillo, 84.1% of locations have two or more fiber networks; in Des Moines 74.0%. In Rochester, Minnesota, the figure is 1.4%: Metronet covers 89.8% of the city, while Spectrum reports service at 96.2%, almost all of it over cable rather than fiber (0.5%¹).

What the filing does not show

These are availability figures that Metronet reports to the FCC, as of June 30, 2026. A listed location is one where the company says it could install service within ten business days; it is not a subscriber count, and any listing that looks wrong can be challenged on the FCC National Broadband Map. The data contain no prices or plans. Those appear on the broadband facts label the company must show at the point of sale.
