Bloomington Residential Internet Coverage

Home to almost 80,000 people, Bloomington is one of the largest suburbs of Springfield, the capital of Illinois. Businesses and homeowners throughout Bloomington have numerous options when it comes to choosing an internet service provider.

Those who prefer cable internet service may benefit from the large service area of Xfinity, which serves all of Bloomington and many nearby communities. Covered neighborhoods include Lincoln Street, Normal, and Twin Grove. Service extends eastward to the Central Illinois Regional Airport area, giving options to local businesses and travelers.

In many parts of Bloomington, Mediacom is another viable option. Currently, the Mediacom service area does not reach central Bloomington. However, it is accessible along the northern, southern, western, and eastern edges of the city. It brings coverage to areas like McLean, Hendrix, Stanford, Bloomington Heights, White Oak, and Barnes. The coverage map runs beyond Bloomington to reach many of the city's neighboring communities and suburbs.

The white-collar residents of Bloomington are typically well-educated and work many fields using computers and math. It's a relatively wealthy city whose residents enjoy short commutes. Many residents depend on their internet services for professional advancement. Compared with 95% of Illinois, 100% of Bloomington residents can connect to high-speed services.

Frontier offers DSL to 100% of Bloomington homes. Xfinity offers cable internet to 98% of residents. Fiber optics have not yet made their way into Bloomington's residential internet offerings.

Business internet offerings mirror those offered to residents.

I have never taken the time to write a review, but felt that it was important to do so now. I contacted Frontier about internet service and had the best customer service EVER! I spoke to a young lady named Brittany Richardson and she provided me with excellent service. She was friendly, upbeat and had great patience while answering all my many questions. She was also extremely knowledgeable about their service and was able to help me navigate that process. In these times it was just really refreshing to encounter someone so personable and nice and courteous who really wanted to help. Thanks Frontier and thanks Brittany for your exceptional service!!
