Tucson, Arizona, may have been the setting for many old-school Western films full of tumbleweeds and saloons, but the real city is now sleek and modern — and, yes, surrounded by desert and cacti. What you wouldn’t have found in those old Western movies is high-speed internet, but there’s plenty of that to be had in Tucson these days. 

Tucson is home to several top-tier ISPs, including T-Mobile, Verizon and CenturyLink, though our pick for the best internet provider in Tucson is Xfinity. At CNET, we consider speed, pricing, customer service and overall value when recommending the best broadband in an area. Xfinity offers a number of plans starting at just $20 per month and speeds up to 1,200 megabits per second so that customers can get that fast service they’re looking for. 

Though fiber is the buzziest internet connection right now — and you can get fiber in Tucson through CenturyLink/Quantum Fiber — it isn’t as widely available yet in the city. You’ll find more connectivity through cable and fixed wireless in Tucson while the fiber network grows.

In the most recent Tucson speed tests, Xfinity came out on top in expected download speeds, with Cox Communications just behind. And in the most recent Ookla data of the entire US, Tucson came in at number 89 overall in median download speed, with Xfinity as its fastest ISP. 

This is just the beginning though. For a closer look at everything else there is to know about internet service providers in Tucson, read on.
