Xfinity vs Ziply Fiber in Edmonds
Ziply Fiber undercuts Xfinity on price and crushes it on upload speed, but Xfinity’s cable reaches slightly more Edmonds addresses where fiber hasn’t been built.
Ziply Fiber is the smarter pick for most Edmonds homes: it starts at $20/mo, tops out at a symmetrical 6,000/6,000 Mbps, and earns a 99/100 speed score. Xfinity counters with near-universal ~100% coverage versus Ziply’s ~98%, so it’s the fallback when fiber doesn’t reach your block. If you can get Ziply, its price and upload speeds are hard to beat. If you can’t, Xfinity’s cable still delivers up to 2,000/300 Mbps at $40 and a strong 95/100 score.
