Those locations reach 32.7% of the city's homes, about one in three. So most city homes sit outside Optimum's reported area.

Which product will my address get?
In the Dec 31, 2025 snapshot, FCC shows Optimum fiber in 206 of the 216 listed places where Optimum reports service, and in 405 of the 442 New York Census places where it reports service at all. Confirm the product at your address.
Six of the ten listed places without Optimum fiber are in Dutchess County. The others are Middletown, Wallkill, Bedford and Yorktown Heights. FCC shows no Optimum fiber in Hyde Park (745 Optimum locations), Staatsburg (276) or Wingdale (328). In Highland, just 37 of 1,905 report fiber.

If the result at your address names a fiber tier, choose an Optimum fiber tier compares the five on Optimum's fiber page.
How sure is each claim on this page?
- L1: ZIP estimate. A ZIP code covers many streets. We do not publish ZIP pages.
- L2: FCC-reported (used on this page). Providers report the technology at each location to the FCC National Broadband Map.
- L3: Provider-coverage (used on this page). Optimum names the place on its own locations page (shown as "Listed by Optimum").
- L4: Provider-confirmed address. Only the address check reaches this level. It returns the offer for your street address and unit.
- L5: User-confirmed orderable. We never claim this level. You confirm it when you place the order.
Deciding in New York
- Nassau, Suffolk or Westchester county towns: most reported Optimum locations use fiber in the Dec 31, 2025 snapshot, though none are recorded in Bedford or Yorktown Heights. Use fiber-tier guidance only if the current address result confirms fiber.
- Bronx or Brooklyn: Optimum's reported residential-unit share of 32.7% is New York City-wide in the Dec 31, 2025 snapshot. This source supplies no separate borough percentage. Check service for your building.
- Poughkeepsie, Middletown or Mahopac: Optimum reaches few homes, so start with the other companies.
- Hyde Park, Staatsburg, Wingdale or Highland: the snapshot shows little or no Optimum fiber. Confirm cable or fiber in the current address result.
Before you pay for more than a gig, read when gigabit or multi-gig internet is worth it.
Twenty listed names have no Census place of their own, including the Bronx, Brooklyn, Somers, Pound Ridge and Purchase. Their table rows read "Not a Census place".
Optimum also lists towns in New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania. For the other states on Optimum's list, see where Optimum offers internet. To line Optimum up against the other companies at your address, compare every provider across New York on Konecteaze.
