* This operator reports several technologies to the FCC nationally. The federal data does not break that down by city, so we cannot tell you which one reaches a specific street in Houston. Satellite providers are shown last and marked “nationwide” because they cover essentially every address in the country, so their coverage figure tells you nothing about Houston specifically.

What speeds are available across Texas

This is state-level data, not Houston data. The FCC does not publish speed availability below county level, so we will not pretend to have a figure for Houston. Treat the table below as the backdrop for Texas as a whole.

How to read these numbers

A provider at 90% is a realistic option for almost everyone in Houston. A provider at 5% has built out a handful of streets and possibly including yours, possibly not. Neither figure is a promise, because providers report their own coverage to the FCC and the data is known to overstate it.

If a provider tells you they cannot serve your address, they are right and the map is wrong. We would rather say that plainly than pretend to a precision this data does not have.
