List of wired multiple-system broadband providers in Massachusetts (by municipality) explained

This is a list of municipalities with available wired multiple-system ("triple play") broadband providers, often commonly known as cable franchise holders, or fiber to the premises providers. As of 2015 Massachusetts had ten registered providers which served 308 communities (out of 351), with those 308 having at least one franchise provider.^[1] It is estimated that these ten providers alone contributed roughly $3.5 billion dollars to the Commonwealth's economy in 2011.^{[2] [3]}

A handful of municipal owned providers in the state also form a collective known as the Massachusetts Alliance for Municipal Electric Choice (MAMEC).
