Is Verizon Fios available at your Pennsylvania address?
Only Verizon's check of your street address can tell you. Verizon lists eight Pennsylvania areas for Fios, and its FCC filing puts the fiber around Philadelphia and Pittsburgh with mostly wireless in between. Statewide, Verizon reports some service at 70% of residential units, so start with your own address before you read the county detail.
Verizon lists Scranton and Wilkes-Barre, but in Luzerne County its Dec 2025 filing shows 13,393 fiber and 58,324 wireless locations, and Frontier reports service at 27.1% of Scranton's units. An address there may name Frontier or Verizon 5G Home instead of Fios. For a Frontier result, Order now.
Looking for a Fios availability map? The free FCC National Broadband Map works at the address level: type in a Pennsylvania address and it lists the providers that reported service at that location, Verizon included. Those filings run months behind, so treat the map as a second opinion and Verizon's address check as the answer.

Deciding in Pennsylvania
Around Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, compare Fios with Comcast cable if both fit your address. If you are leaving Comcast, read what switching away from Xfinity involves. For an Xfinity address, See Xfinity plans.
In Scranton and Wilkes-Barre, check Fios and Frontier on their own to see what you can get. In the middle of the state, compare the wired and wireless products offered at your address.
The state has the widest field of any Fios state, with 30 providers filing service at 0.5% or more of units, and the highest DSL share of the nine. It also has the highest share of homes with no internet, 7.9%. Work out how much speed your household needs before you compare them.
Just under half of Verizon's fiber here is filed at a multi-gig speed. Weigh gigabit against multi-gig before you pay for it.
- If you have a Fios install booked, read what to expect on install day first.
- If you live near a state line, see Verizon Fios across New Jersey, Verizon Fios across New York or Verizon Fios across Maryland.
