MEDIA EVENT – Pharr Connect to Launch Fiber Broadband for Multi-Family Communities on Tue., 12/2 @5:30 PM

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 2025

Pharr, Texas – The City of Pharr is excited to announce a major milestone in its ongoing effort to expand high-quality broadband access to more residents. Pharr Connect, the city’s fiber-optic internet service, is now expanding its service into multi-family living areas, including apartment complexes, 55+ communities, Winter Texan mobile home parks, and other private multi-family developments throughout Pharr.

The kickoff celebration will take place on Tuesday, December 2, at 5:30 PM at WinterHaven MHP (1015 W. Sam Houston Blvd.) in Pharr.

Pharr Connect is the City of Pharr’s solution to closing the digital divide. The city offers reliable, fast fiber internet and next-generation WiFi technology, connecting all devices in homes and businesses. While previously available to residential and business customers, service had not been extended to private areas of multi-family properties until now.

Through this effort, thousands of residents living in multi-dwelling units will now have access to Pharr Connect, strengthening digital access, opportunity, and connectivity across the community. The City of Pharr is proud to bring this service to even more families.

The growth of Pharr Connect will bring affordable broadband to even more residents. In addition, families with a child enrolled at PSJA ISD receive the service at no cost.

This event is exclusively for media to attend; city officials will be available for on-site interview opportunities. To RSVP your outlet’s attendance, please email [email protected] by 5 pm on Monday, December 1, 2025.
