My mom moves to Olathe, KS. The realtor indicated that ATT, Comcast, and Google Fiber all provided service to the neighborhood and the HOA confirmed. Unfortunately for her, Google fiber laid fiber ~3 years before and her cul-de-sac was developed ~2 years before she moved in. No Google Fiber, no Comcast, just ATT. Both Comcast and Google Fiber were within 100 ft of her property and wouldn't serve her. Google has no plans to serve that cul-de-sac in the future. Comcast did eventually lay cable. I'm sure her and her neighbors aren't the only people in America to experience something similar.

Where is this example?  Or is this strictly hypothetical?
