Dear Anaheim City Council,
I am a new resident of Anaheim, and I would like to raise my concerns over the lack of fiber internet
connectivity within the city. I have had fiber internet at my former home in the LA suburbs for over
ten years, so imagine my shock when I moved to Anaheim to find out there was only one wired provider in
the area: Spectrum cable.
In today's fast connected world, the residents of Anaheim deserve quality, reliable internet. 5G wireless
options have high latency and slow down the minute all your neighbors decide to switch over. There is
nothing stopping Spectrum from gouging prices for poor connectivity because residents have no
comparable option to switch to. I urge the city to create incentives for network companies to bring our
internet infrastructure into the current decade.
Sincerely,
Helen Chen
