Fiber networks established in Ammon and Idaho Falls

 fiber-optic networks over the last three years.
The first neighborhoods in Ammon went live with fiber internet access in February 2017. The network now runs past about half the houses in Ammon and will be automatically provided for all upcoming neighborhoods and housing developments. The majority of residents who can hook into the fiber network have done so.
Ammon treats the fiber network as a public utility, which is a relatively new approach to internet service. Residents must opt in to begin receiving the fiber internet and the wires have been laid in the areas with significant early demand. Much of the extension has been made through "local improvement districts" — an Idaho-specific method for expanding infrastructure where property owners pay a lower cost for improvements by joining the project in large numbers.
