Internet Providers in Salt Lake City, Utah

Salt Lake City is a very well-connected city by any standard. Broadband cable and fiber internet connections are both widely available in the city. Salt Lakers may even be able to choose among multiple fiber internet providers that serve their address — a rare luxury in internet connectivity.

Which fiber internet options are available to you will depend on where in Salt Lake City you live. (That isn’t true of cable providers though. Xfinity’s 97.8% coverage in town, and its lack of competition, makes it virtually certain to be your only cable option.)

The residential areas in the southeastern portions of Salt Lake City are particularly well served by fiber options. Down around Sugar House Park, you’ll likely find Google Fiber, Utopia, and — particularly north of Route 80 — Quantum Fiber. East Bench is pretty well served, too, particularly by Google Fiber and Utopia.

Salt Lake City’s Central Community is the best-served area of all. Many addresses in the area will have the option to sign up for Utopia, Google Fiber, or Quantum Fiber.

Near the University of Utah, residents of the Avenues can expect to be able to sign up for Google Fiber or Quantum Fiber (but not Utopia, which doesn’t reach that part of the city). The same is true in Capitol Hill, and it’s a similar story on the other side of Temple Square in Downtown Salt Lake City. That’s particularly impressive, since many American cities do not have fiber internet infrastructure in their historic downtowns or business districts.

West of downtown, Google Fiber and Utopia are your best bets, followed by Quantum Fiber. Northwest Salt Lake neighborhoods like Rose Park generally have access to Quantum Fiber, Google Fiber, or both.

Salt Lake’s Northwest Quadrant, past the airport, is home to Beehive Broadband’s share of the city. Utopia and Quantum also cover that part of town, but Google Fiber does not.
