BY THE NUMBERS
FCC place-level fiber share. Frontier reports fiber to about 41% of residential locations in Los Gatos (FCC Broadband Data Collection, December 2025 filing, Census Place level). Availability is per address — a town figure is never a promise about one home.
The county picture, all providers. In Santa Clara County, CA, providers report fiber at 100/20 Mbps or better to about 39% of residential units and cable to about 95%; about 2% of units have no wired service at 25/3 Mbps, and about 178,055 cable-served units have no cable offer with 100 Mbps upload — the upload gap fiber sells against. (FCC Broadband Data Collection, December 2025 filing, county level — every network filed, not this program's build; availability is per address.)
Why knock fiber in Los Gatos?
Los Gatos is established and owner-heavy: 64.9% of homes are owner-occupied and only 4.2% were built in 2010–2019 (ACS 2020–2024). The Town lists five historic districts, Almond Grove, Broadway, Downtown, Fairview Plaza and University-Edelen, and its North 40 plan area, about 44 acres between Highway 85 and Lark Avenue, is planned for housing and commercial space. Town Code requires a police-issued identification permit and limits soliciting to 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Los Gatos counted 33,529 residents at the 2020 Census and 32,952 in the Census Bureau's 2024 estimate, on about 11.6 square miles of land where the Santa Clara Valley meets the Santa Cruz Mountains. The Town's FY2024–25 financial report lists Netflix (2,503 employees) as its largest employer by far, followed by El Camino Hospital Los Gatos (556), Courtside Tennis Club (354), Los Gatos Union School District (325) and Los Gatos-Saratoga High School District (320). Housing is 57.7% single-family detached and 64.9% owner-occupied, with 35.1% of homes rented (ACS 2020–2024). Hospital, school, club and grocery jobs keep set schedules, and some of those workers may have afternoons or weekends open for 1099 contract work.

Where does Frontier have fiber in Los Gatos?
Frontier's own FCC filing reports fiber-to-the-premises at about 41% of Los Gatos's residential locations (FCC Broadband Data Collection, December 2025 filing, Census Place level). That is a town-level share, not a street map, so the filing does not show which streets are inside the footprint; availability is per address and the address check decides each door. Next door, Monte Sereno reports about 67%, and unincorporated Lexington Hills in the hills to the south about 93%, while Saratoga, to the northwest, reports about 4%.
Do I need a permit to knock doors in Los Gatos?
Yes. The Los Gatos Town Code (Chapter 14, Article IV) defines a solicitor as anyone going house to house taking orders for goods or for services to be performed in the future, and section 14.40.105 bars acting as a solicitor without an identification permit, in addition to any Town business license. You apply to the Chief of Police with a description of the business, your employer's details, a recent head-and-shoulders photograph and a statement of any convictions, and the chief may take fingerprints; the permit issues only after a police investigation, lasts 90 days and must be worn on your outer clothing. Soliciting is allowed only from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., and homes posting a "No Soliciting" sign are off-limits. As a 1099 independent contractor you are responsible for your own compliance.
Which nearby places pair with a Los Gatos route?
Monte Sereno is the closest pairing.

Unincorporated Lexington Hills, about five miles south in the hills, reports about 93%. Saratoga, to the northwest, reports about 4%. Each city sets its own solicitor rules, and unincorporated areas follow Santa Clara County's, so check before crossing a boundary. Availability is per address everywhere.
