How Chico Can Provide Google a Unique Case Study

Our area is an urban center (Chico) with substantial ties to our more rural neighbors (Paradise, Oroville, Los Molinos, Biggs, Gridley, Willows). A deployment of the Google Fiber for Communities here would provide Google with data on how the network is utilized by users in rural areas. While this may not initially seem like a hotbed of innovation, not everyone who would benefit from and desire to purchase this technology should it go national, would live in a city. Google would be able to track usage and innovation trends in the outlaying areas nearby as well as in an urbanized, university town setting.
