The internet provider, which launched in 2017, isn’t yet available in a lot of areas, but you can plug in your address on Starry’s website (if you live in one of the listed areas) to see if you have access to its service.

Plans for expansion

In July, Starry announced via press release that it would be expanding to Las Vegas next — launching in the latter half of 2022. “There is an urgent need for competition in the broadband industry and we’re excited to bring a new broadband service option to Nevada,” said Chet Kanojia, co-founder and CEO of Starry in the press release. “Most American consumers lack a choice in internet providers, leaving them with sky high bills for sub-par service, or worse, no broadband service at all because they can’t afford it.”

In 2019, Starry also announced that it had acquired more than 100 licenses for 24 GHz millimeter-wave spectrum to further expand its reach in the coming years. These licenses are in Tucson, AZ; Memphis, TN; and San Antonio, TX.
