Municipal Internet Services

Municipal Internet Services are internet networks provided and managed by local governments to deliver internet connectivity directly to residents, businesses, and public facilities. These services aim to ensure affordable, reliable, and high-speed internet access for all community members, especially in areas where private providers may not fully serve. Using municipal infrastructure, such as fiber optic cables or wireless systems, these services help bridge the digital divide, support local economic growth, and enhance public safety and education. Essentially, they are community-controlled networks designed to improve local internet access and digital inclusion.
