There are 17 Internet providers in New Haven, one of the most important cities in Connecticut.
If fiber internet is available only in 6% regarding Connecticut in general, for New Haven the number goes up to 27% ---which is still pretty low, but is much better than other cities in the state.
Much of it thanks to GoNetspeed coverage, which is available four times more in this city than in the state capital, for example.
Xfinity is also more available in New Haven than Hartford. Those two are, also, the only alternatives for very fast internet in the city, but only one of them has fiber.
Although Xfinity offers a bigger maximum download speed (1.200 Mbps against 1.000 Mbps), when it comes to upload, it only gets as fast as 35 Mbps.
GoNetspeed has up to 1.000 Mbps upload speed, because fiber technology is the only that can provide identical upload and download speed ---and Xfinity does not offer it.
New Haven has a very good coverage overall, with 98% of its addresses having at least two different providers to choose from.
The city is also called “The Elm City”, because it made the first public tree planting program in the United States (and included a very large number of elms, therefore, this nickname).
New Haven is below Hartford, being the 31th most connected city in the state, according to the Federal Communications Commission.
The city is located at the coast of the United States, in the Greater New Haven region, where you will also find, for example, the University of Yale.
Greater New Haven is also the birthplace of one of the most traditional and worldwide famous american foods, one that has become almost a brand for the american way of life and the country trademark: hamburguers.
New Haven itself served as capital of the state from 1701 until 1873, before the government got transferred to Hartford, a more central city.
Within minutes of car travel from New Haven, you can find beautiful beaches.
The city does not have a top professional team as for today, but not many people know that it was once home to the four time Super Bowl champions, New York Giants of the NFL (National FootballLeague).
It happened during a short period, though, between 1973 and 1974. The city is connected to New York City by rails, so many Giants fans live in New Haven until today.
