Durango Cell Signal Strength

There are 376 map hexes within the census-defined boundaries of Durango. The table below shows the proportion of hexes at various levels of signal strength. Where both 4G and 5G coverage is available, data is drawn from whichever technology offers a stronger signal.

Network	Strong	Decent	Weak	None

Colorado State-Wide Coverage Scores

Network	Coverage Score
Verizon	6.7 / 10
AT&T	6.5 / 10
T-Mobile	6.1 / 10

Cell phone service in Colorado tends to be lackluster in comparison to service in most of the rest of the U.S. Congestion is sometimes a problem in the Denver metro area, and coverage tends to be spotty in mountainous areas. Verizon and AT&T tend to be preferable to T-Mobile for people who regularly ski or hike in the mountains. However, no carriers have great coverage throughout the Rocky Mountains.

Data Sourcing

Coverage maps draw on data from the FCC's Broadband Data Collection and Coverage Critic's crowdsourcing.

The coverage information for Durango is rated as medium-low confidence. Consider talking with neighbors about their cell phone coverage and looking at carriers' coverage maps before choosing a plan. Documentation is available elsewhere covering limitations of Coverage Critic's approach.
