Who Has The Fastest Broadband Connection In Pittsburgh?

That's a great question, and one that really depends on where in the Pittsburgh metro area you live. For example, if you're in Millville, Comcast's internet product Xfinity is the fastest option. Actually, Xfinity might be your best option in Pittsburgh proper as well, even though it only covers 81.33% of the city. For the 18.67% of households that Comcast doesn't cover, Verizon's FIOS fiber connection is a great option.

When it's time to sit down and choose, make sure that you compare “apples to apples.” Even if you have to choose between a cable and fiber connection, know that both are considered reliable and quick. When the choice comes down to money, there are enough service providers that you should have no trouble finding a 12 or 24-month discount that can help save you money.

A few final words of advice before you make a choice: talk to your employer. If you work from home, they may have a discount system set up with certain providers. You'll also want to ask the neighbors who they use and whether or not Internet outages are a problem. Although the population of Pittsburgh has declined steadily since 2019 fortunately, there are enough homes and businesses in the area that competition remains fierce and companies continue to invest in technology infrastructure throughout the area.
