Xfinity is the best overall, with cable speeds up to 2,000 Mbps reaching about 18% of the city. AT&T’s fiber reaches about 25% of the city at speeds up to 5,000/5,000 Mbps, and if it reaches your address, it is the faster choice.

In ZIP 95378, AT&T leads with fiber reaching about 37%, while Xfinity’s cable reaches about 36%, making this one of Tracy’s closest head-to-head areas. ZIP 95391 leans more clearly toward AT&T, with its 5,000/5,000 Mbps fiber reaching about 41%, while Xfinity’s fastest cable tier reaches about 25%. In ZIP 95304, Xfinity reaches about 24%, AT&T fiber about 22%, and unWired Broadband’s fixed wireless about 18%, so speeds can be more mixed. Around Tracy Hills and Glenbriar Estates, Xfinity is especially prominent, while Redbridge and Hidden Lake still deserve an address-level check rather than assumptions based on neighborhood reputation. Cal.net offers a broad fixed-wireless option reaching about 85% of the city at up to 100/20 Mbps, with Verizon and unWired Broadband also worth checking where wired service misses. Coverage changes street to street, so confirm the exact address before choosing.

THE TAKEAWAY

Our recommendation for Tracy

Xfinity’s cable service is available to about 77% of Tracy on the 1.2 Gig plan, giving many shoppers a solid, reliable option with up to 1200 Mbps download and 35 Mbps upload speeds. Its provider Speed Score of 91/100 is above the city average of 55, making it a competitive choice for demanding home use. Availability and plan options still depend on your specific address, so confirm which tier reaches your home.

Speeds and reach below are what the provider files with the FCC for each technology tier, by census block. The plans it actually sells here, with their own speeds and prices, are under Pricing & Plans; the two can differ.

About Xfinity

Xfinity reaches 78.1% of Tracy, so many residents have a solid chance of getting its cable service, though availability still depends on the address. Where available, cable offers excellent options, including up to 1,200 Mbps for $100 per month or up to 1,000 Mbps for $50 per month, with plans up to 2,000 Mbps in limited areas. Check your address before choosing, since the fastest 2 Gig plan reaches only about 18% of the city and service options can vary locally.

THE TAKEAWAY

Our recommendation for Tracy

At $90 per month for 12 months, AT&T’s 5 GIG Fiber plan offers up to 5000 Mbps both ways, a Speed Score of 95/100, and a $150 reward card, making it a top-tier option that is well above Tracy’s city average. Fiber is available to about 25% of the city, so the best performance may depend on your exact address. Where fiber is unavailable, Internet Air offers up to 300 Mbps download and 30 Mbps upload with a 72/100 Speed Score, providing adequate performance but less capacity and consistency than fiber.

Speeds and reach below are what the provider files with the FCC for each technology tier, by census block. The plans it actually sells here, with their own speeds and prices, are under Pricing & Plans; the two can differ.

About AT&T

AT&T offers excellent value where fiber is available: $35/mo gets you up to 300 Mbps both ways, while $50/mo can buy up to 1,000 Mbps both ways, and $90/mo reaches up to 5,000 Mbps both ways, with reward cards on these plans. Fiber availability is address-dependent and covers about 38% of Tracy for the 300 Mbps, 500 Mbps, and 1 GIG plans, while the fallback Internet Air option offers up to 300 Mbps download and 30 Mbps upload, which is adequate but may be less reliable for demanding modern use, so check your address for fiber first.

THE TAKEAWAY

Our recommendation for Tracy

Verizon’s 5G fixed wireless service offers up to 300 Mbps download and 75 Mbps upload, making it suitable for everyday streaming, browsing, and video calls, though performance can vary more than wired service. Its Speed Score of 72/100 is above Tracy’s city average of 55, making it a competitive choice. Availability depends on your address, and this plan reaches 57.2% of Tracy, so confirm eligibility before signing up.

About Verizon

Verizon’s 5G fixed wireless service offers up to 300 Mbps download and 75 Mbps upload, which is a good fit for streaming, video calls, and everyday household use, though performance can vary with wireless conditions. It is available to about 57% of Tracy, so check your address carefully, and compare fiber or cable options first if they are available since this plan is adequate rather than the most consistent choice for heavy use.

THE TAKEAWAY

Our recommendation for Tracy

Fixed wireless with up to 100 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload is adequate for everyday browsing and streaming, but its Speed Score of 21 for the Lbr Fixed Wireless plan indicates limited performance compared with alternatives. Availability varies by address, with Lbr Fixed Wireless reaching about 85% of Tracy while Licensed Fixed Wireless reaches about 0% of the city. Consider checking other providers first at your address, especially if you need consistently strong performance for multiple users or demanding online activities.

About Cal.net

Fixed wireless from Cal.net offers up to 100 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload, which is adequate for browsing, streaming, and smaller households but may feel limiting for heavy use or multiple simultaneous users. Availability is address-dependent, and since this is Cal.net’s main option in Tracy, check for faster cable or fiber service first because fixed wireless may not be enough for modern needs at some addresses.

THE TAKEAWAY

Our recommendation for Tracy

The value is strongest on the Lbr Fixed Wireless plan, which offers up to 400 Mbps down and 50 Mbps up for a Speed Score of 80/100, making it competitive with Tracy’s average top speed score of 55. Fixed wireless can be adequate for everyday use, but performance may vary more than wired connections, and this plan reaches only about 13% of Tracy. Address availability matters, so check whether the 400/50 Mbps plan reaches your home before counting on unWired Broadband for your connection.

Speeds and reach below are what the provider files with the FCC for each technology tier, by census block. The plans it actually sells here, with their own speeds and prices, are under Pricing & Plans; the two can differ.

About unWired Broadband

At the monthly price quoted for your address, unWired Broadband offers up to 400 Mbps download and 50 Mbps upload through its Lbr Fixed Wireless plan, a good-speed option with a Speed Score of 80/100 and availability in about 13% of Tracy’s census blocks. Fixed wireless is adequate rather than as consistent as fiber or cable, and availability is address-dependent, so check for the 400/50 plan first because the slower options, such as up to 100/20 Mbps, may not be enough for busy modern households.

THE TAKEAWAY

Our recommendation for Tracy

Households seeking affordable internet for streaming, work, and everyday use may find T-Mobile appealing, with plans offering up to 500 Mbps download and 60 Mbps upload and a Speed Score of 80/100, above Tracy’s city average of 55. The $35/mo Rely plan offers up to 400 Mbps download and 50 Mbps upload, while the 500 Mbps plans are available to about 57% of Tracy and require a qualifying bundle. Because this is fixed wireless, performance and availability can vary by address, so confirm service at your home before choosing it.

THE TAKEAWAY

Our recommendation for Tracy

Unwired Ltd’s headline 59/100 score corresponds to its Residential 200 Mbps plan, offering up to 200 Mbps download and 25 Mbps upload, enough for streaming, video calls, and several connected users. That score is above Tracy’s city average of 55, making it competitive, though fixed wireless can be less consistent than wired connections. The plan is available to 4.0% of Tracy, so confirm service at your address and compare other available technologies if reliability or latency is important.

THE TAKEAWAY

Our recommendation for Tracy

At $94.99 per month for the first 12 months, then $119.99, HughesNet’s Fusion plan buys you up to 100 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload, but its 21/100 Speed Score is below Tracy’s city average of 55. Satellite service has higher latency and more limited real-world performance than wired alternatives, so consider checking other providers at your address first. HughesNet reaches 100% of Tracy with Fusion, though address-level availability should still be confirmed.

About HughesNet

At $94.99 per month for the first 12 months, then $119.99, HughesNet’s Fusion plan buys up to 100 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload, but its satellite service and 21/100 Speed Score make it a limited-value choice for demanding modern use. Its Select and Lite plans cost $49.99 and $39.99 per month initially for up to 50/5 Mbps and 25/3 Mbps, respectively, and each is available to 100.0% of Tracy, but satellite latency can affect video calls, gaming, and streaming, so check for faster fiber, cable, or other local options at your address first.

THE TAKEAWAY

Our recommendation for Tracy

Viasat is a limited-performance choice compared with alternatives in Tracy, with a headline Speed Score of 18/100 versus the city average of 55. Its Viasat Essentials satellite plan offers up to 55 Mbps download and 4 Mbps upload for $69.99 per month, with availability at 100% of the city, but satellite service can have higher latency and may struggle with demanding online activities. Viasat Unleashed is slower at up to 34 Mbps download and 4 Mbps upload, with a Speed Score of 13/100, so check what other providers can serve your specific address before choosing.

Speeds and reach below are what the provider files with the FCC for each technology tier, by census block. The plans it actually sells here, with their own speeds and prices, are under Pricing & Plans; the two can differ.

About Viasat Inc

Viasat Inc is mainly a backup option in Tracy, so check for faster cable or fiber service at your address first. Its Viasat Essentials plan offers up to 55 Mbps download and 4 Mbps upload for $69.99 per month and reaches 100% of the city, while Viasat Unleashed offers up to 34 Mbps download and 4 Mbps upload for $99.99 per month; as satellite plans with below-average speed scores, they may be adequate for basic use but limited for modern household needs.

How We Analyze Internet in Tracy

FCC Broadband Data

We use the FCC National Broadband Map, updated twice a year with provider-reported coverage at the census block level.

Speed Score

A state-wide percentile of each plan’s maximum advertised download speed against every option filed with the FCC in the state, all technologies on one scale. It is not a measured speed test.

Coverage Calculation

Provider coverage shows what percentage of census blocks in Tracy report service availability from each provider.

Data Coverage for Tracy

ZIP Codes Analyzed:
9530495376953779537895391
Census Tracts: 30 tracts
Census Blocks: 1,696 blocks analyzed

How We Calculate Speed Score

The Speed Score is a state-wide percentile from 0 to 100. It answers one question: of every internet option filed with the FCC in this state, across every technology, what share is slower than this plan’s maximum advertised download speed?

What goes in:

  • The plan’s maximum advertised download speed, as the provider files it with the FCC and lists it for sale.
  • Every other serviceable option in the state from the FCC Broadband Data Collection, counted by the census blocks it reaches.

Speed Score = share of the state’s filed options with a lower advertised download speed

A score of 85 means this plan’s advertised speed beats 85% of the options filed in the state. Fiber, cable, DSL, fixed wireless and satellite are all on the same scale, so a 1,000 Mbps plan scores the same whoever sells it.

What it is not: a measured speed test. It does not include latency, upload speed, reliability or congestion. Real throughput at an address varies with wiring, equipment and time of day.

How providers are ordered on this page: each provider’s tier scores are averaged across the census blocks it serves, then multiplied by the share of the city it reaches. Wired providers rank ahead of wireless-only ones, and satellite last, because their filings describe a signal footprint rather than a plant. The same rule sets the title and the 30-second verdict.

Data source: FCC National Broadband Map (Broadband Data Collection), republished roughly twice a year; provider plan lists checked monthly.

How We Calculate Capabilities

Estimated Capabilities predict how well each internet plan supports common household activities based on speed requirements and connection type.

Rating Scale:

  • Excellent – Optimal performance, handles peak usage easily
  • Good – Reliable performance with minimal issues
  • Fair – Functional but may experience slowdowns during heavy use
  • Poor – Not recommended; expect frequent buffering or lag

How We Rate Each Category:

Streaming

Based on download speed. 4K streaming requires 25+ Mbps per stream; HD requires 5+ Mbps. We account for multiple simultaneous streams.

Multi-device

Evaluates total bandwidth capacity divided by typical household device count (phones, tablets, smart TVs, computers). Fiber and cable handle many devices better than DSL or satellite.

Gaming

Considers both upload speed (for sending game data) and latency (ping time). Fiber and cable excel here; satellite connections struggle due to inherent signal delay.

Whole Home

Assesses whether the connection can reliably serve an entire household during peak evening hours. Factors in technology type (shared vs. dedicated bandwidth) and total speed capacity.

Note: Actual performance depends on your specific location, network congestion, and equipment quality.
