Our read of the numbers
What this means for you
Fiber is a likely option. Providers report fiber at 100/20 Mbps or faster for 64% of homes in Mississippi. When comparing, ask about upload speeds, which are often higher on fiber plans.
Gigabit is widely reported. Gigabit plans (1,000 Mbps download, 100 Mbps upload) are reported for 69% of homes. Compare prices across speed tiers; a slower tier can cost less if your household does not need the top speed.
You likely have a real choice. 5 non-satellite providers each reach at least a quarter of homes, so many addresses have a real choice. That matters most when a promotional price ends.
Phone-only households are common. 16.5% of households rely only on a cellular data plan for internet (ACS 5-year 2020-2024). A home plan can be worth comparing if your phone data runs out or slows down.
