The City of Mont Belvieu’s heritage is built on the oil and gas industry, processing nearly 85% of the natural gas liquids in the US. Major oil and gas companies employ a significant amount of Mont Belvieu’s workforce. For years, residents and businesses of Mont Belvieu, a suburb only 30 miles from Houston, have struggled with slow, unreliable internet and limited choices from existing providers. While Houston received large investments from providers to bring faster speeds and more options to the market, Mont Belvieu continued to struggle with limited options.
