Anchorage, Alaska

Fastest ISP GCI Communications

Alaska's leading cable company recently upgraded its system to deliver 250Mbps broadband in seven major metro areas, but it isn't stopping there; it has committed to upgrading parts of Anchorage, Fairbanks and Juneau to gigabit fiber by the end of 2016. Yes, that means Anchorage has faster Internet than lower-48 metros like Chicago, and you have GCI to thank.

Fastest Mobile Network Verizon Wireless

Verizon Wireless is America's LTE network king. An excellent nationwide buildout, broad swathes of 1700Mhz "XLTE" spectrum, and broad support for that spectrum across its phones meant that Verizon won more of our tested metro areas than any other.
