The service is currently operating or rolling out operations in 18 cities, including: Atlanta, Georgia; Austin, Texas; Charlotte, North Carolina; Chicago, Illinois; Denver, Colorado; San Francisco, California; Seattle, Washington; and 11 others.
Google has recently pulled Fiber out of a few other cities, including Boston, Massachusetts, and the notable case of Louisville, Kentucky, where Google will reportedly pay $4 million to the city over the next 19 months for damages resulting from a failed attempt to deploy the service.
But if you're located in one of the cities in which Google Fiber currently operates, you can enter your address to check for availability at your specific address (coverage within cities is not comprehensive), sign up for service, or get additional information on the Google Fiber website.
Much of the appeal of Google Fiber is in its bandwidth. While the national average for internet access is about 11.5 Mbps, Google Fiber boasts a top speed of 1,000 Mbps (or 1 Gbps) at the highest tier of service.
Like most broadband internet services, Google Fiber is a shared network, which means that the speed you can achieve depends upon how much data your neighbors are using at the same time. But because Google Fiber is built to support 1000 Mbps, the bandwidth is so high that it's unlikely any individual customer's bandwidth would be affected by other customers.
The pricing for service varies by region, but most Google Fiber customers can expect to pay about $50/month for 100 Mbps service and $70/month for 1000 Mbps. Google Fiber also includes an option for cable television, which adds about $90/month to the basic plan. In all cases, the pricing is all-inclusive and billed month-to-month, with no annual service contracts, fees for rental equipment, or monthly data caps.
