""Internet access allows New Yorkers to access jobs, find no-cost child care, and explore the city they love. But for too many, broadband connection is either unreliable or unattainable.""
""With this $2 million investment in the Neighborhood Internet program for New Yorkers in affordable housing, this administration is taking a major step towards closing the digital gap and building a city that is connected in more ways than one.""
Mayor Zohran Mamdani and U.S. Rep. Ritchie Torres announced a $2 million federal investment to expand the Neighborhood Internet program. This initiative aims to provide free high-speed internet to low-income residents in The Bronx and Upper Manhattan. The program, initially funded by the city's Department of Housing Preservation and Development, is expected to reach thousands more households over the next two years. The Bronx has low broadband adoption rates, with many households lacking reliable internet access.
