Project Description
Los Angeles County's Community Broadband Networks (CBNs) are major projects to accelerate digital equity by using public-private partnerships that will provide reliable, high-quality, low-cost home internet access options in some of the County's digital divide areas where more than 20 percent of the households do not subscribe to broadband internet. CBNs will provide a low-cost plan of less than $30/month for minimum internet speed of 100 megabits per second download and 100 megabits per second upload speeds to qualifying households, along with multilingual customer support and marketing, and other consumer-friendly terms. The Community Broadband Networks 1 Project will cover all or portions of these communities in Unincorporated L.A. County or in the City of Los Angeles: Supervisorial District 1: East Los Angeles, Boyle Heights, Lincoln Heights, Montecito Heights, and El Sereno.
