Today, Google Fiber invites were sent to three more cities in the United States. City leaders in Irvine, San Diego, and Louisville will be asked to work with Google in planning for a potential launch of the service in their respective cities. Google and the city leaders must analyze topography, housing density, and existing infrastructure before anything becomes official. So nothing a guarantee and all parties can end up going their own way after assessing different aspects of launching Google Fiber.
Hit the break to see a map of Google Fiber's progress.
Current status of Google Fiber
Google highlighted items that make the new potential Fiber cities appealing:
- Irvine: Entrepreneurs and companies are moving towards a collaborative environment.
- San Diego: The city is currently experiencing a resurgence in startup activity.
- Louisville: The Code Louisville initiative aims to meet programmers and software developers with employers.
Google Fiber brings gigabit speeds to homes for just $70 per month, a clear advantage over what many internet service providers (ISPs) currently offer customers. Television service can be included, too, for $130 per month.
