Why Fairfield Chooses Anthem
The Internet Provider That Earns Your Business Every Month
Fairfield holds a distinction that few Idaho communities can claim: it is the county seat and the only incorporated city in all of Camas County — a county so rural that its entire 2020 population of just over 1,000 people makes it the second-least populous county in the state. The county itself is named for the camas root, the lily-like plant with an edible bulb that drew Native American peoples — Shoshoni, Northern Paiute, and Nez Perce — to the Camas Prairie for at least 11,000 years as an essential winter food source. When the government opened the area for settlement in 1877, farming families followed, establishing over 60 agricultural operations by 1881, and the arrival of the railroad in 1911 consolidated the scattered settlement into what became Fairfield. Camas County was carved from Blaine County in 1917, with Fairfield as its anchor — a community that has remained primarily agricultural ever since, spread across an expansive high prairie at around 5,000 feet elevation with the Sawtooth National Forest rising to the north.
That geography — a 946-square-mile zip code, a remote prairie surrounded by mountains, and a county population barely above 1,000 — tells you everything you need to know about why Fairfield has been broadband's afterthought. With no cable infrastructure and CenturyLink DSL stretched thin across the vast service area, Rise Broadband and Starlink satellite have served as the primary alternatives for many households. Anthem Broadband covers Fairfield with fiber-fed advanced wireless at speeds up to 100 Mbps — a meaningful, locally operated option for a community this remote, from a provider willing to serve a county that a national carrier would never prioritize on a spreadsheet. For Fairfield and the ranches and farms spread across Camas County's wide-open prairie, Anthem shows up where others simply don't.
