In summary, California City’s broadband Internet infrastructure conforms with a pattern seen in many California communities: strong access to bundled cable and DSL, with the catch that the majority of houses are limited to only one option for subscribing to either type of Internet service. The cable/DSL pattern has a simple cause. Internet providers were started pre-Internet as television and landline telephone corporations, and use these pre-existing wired networks to deliver their broadband Internet bundles. Thanks to strong network competition around California City, the area’s average download performance is currently 47.14 percent ahead of the California average, accounting for all cities.
