This might be the 'tail wagging the dog' but one of my criteria for a retirement location is the presence of fast, municipal broadband. My parents live maybe a quarter mile outside of the city limits, and all that's available is 5mb dsl.

ATT has made it plain that they would be more than happy if everyone on their street canceled their internet. They've stated the network my parents are on is legacy, won't be maintained and you can't sign up for it today.
