Isn't the bottleneck still at the home. I have a fairly new home but still don't have fiber in my house. Plus the crappy modem/router that companies give out.
All the neighborhoods in Lafayette are covered now with fiber, or close to it. But we got a jump on many towns having our own utilities company offered it years ago to battle Cox's monopoly

I was living in Laffy during that entire fiber battle. Some of the shite that the incumbents tried to pull was astounding. I understand BR was in Google's final 3 cities for the initial fiber rollout, but LA politics steered them away. It's unbelievable that LUS is offering full symmetrical gig service to the home for only $110.
