    In a city a connection like that is probably going to be in the area of $60 to $100. I pay $80 all in for a similar fiber connection.

    Outside of a city you just aren’t going to get it.

    There are a few places that have Community ISPs where it will be substantially less expensive, but those are the exceptions and many states have actually made it illegal to operate community ISPs.
