We do not list Cold Springs by name in our Google service area; it sits inside Washoe County, which we work in. The address check tells you for certain. The valley north of Reno is mostly houses on larger lots, and its business life shows it: a small number of workplaces, a long drive to the rest, and a lot of work done at the kitchen table. ## What does a 31-minute commute do to home internet? It sends more work through the house. The average Cold Springs commute is 31.2 minutes, against 22.5 for Washoe County and 24.8 for Nevada, and 10.0 percent of workers, 480 of 4,821, work from home (ACS 2020-2024, tables B08301 and B08303). On days spent at home, a video call is the heaviest thing most people do online, and the [working from home page](https://hdiss.net/internet-for/working-from-home/) explains what that needs. ## How do the business numbers compare? 85 establishments with 660 employees is about 8 per workplace (U.S. Census Bureau, ZIP Code Business Patterns 2023). Compared with the Stead ZIP's 593 establishments, it is small, but the ZIP is the same kind of place on a smaller scale: a few service businesses, trades and offices serving the houses around them. ## How do Cold Springs homes get online? Of 3,618 households, 80.6 percent report a cable, fiber or DSL type subscription, 6.3 percent satellite and 12.2 percent a phone data plan only, and 4.1 percent, 147 households, report none (ACS 2020-2024, table B28002). The phone-only share is a little above Nevada's 11.8 percent. The wired share is higher than most of the places on these pages, so the edge of town is the question for a business: a shop on a larger lot may sit past where the wire ends. ## What would a small business use the upload for? Uploads show up in three places: a camera at the gate or yard, a nightly backup of the books, and video calls. All three plans list up to 200 Mbps up (hdiss.net, read 10/15/26). The [cloud backup guide](https://hdiss.net/guides/cloud-backup-for-a-small-business/) and the [yard camera guide](https://hdiss.net/guides/remote-cameras-on-a-yard-or-job-site/) explain how much data each uses, and the agreement's data transfer limit applies to both. ## Which plan, and what comes after you ask? Send the Cold Springs street address and a person looks at the path from the nearest tower to the building, then calls you back; if it looks clear, a technician confirms it on site in Cold Springs. The [Cold Springs page](https://hdiss.net/service-area/cold-springs/) and the [89508 page](https://hdiss.net/internet-by-zip/89508/) carry the town and ZIP figures. ## How many people work from home in Cold Springs? The Census puts the median household income in Cold Springs at about $94,000, with 10 percent of workers working from home, roughly 480 people (Census Bureau, ACS 2020-2024 5-year, tables B19013 and B08301, pulled October 16, 2026). Home offices count in Cold Springs: a contractor's estimating desk or an accountant's spare room runs on upload as much as a storefront does. ### Sources - [api.census.gov/data/2023/zbp](https://api.census.gov/data/2023/zbp) (U.S. Census Bureau, ZIP Code Business Patterns 2023, retrieved 2026-10-02) - [api.census.gov/data/2024/acs/acs5](https://api.census.gov/data/2024/acs/acs5) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, tables B08301, B08303 and B28002, retrieved 2026-10-02) - [hdiss.net/services/](https://hdiss.net/internet-plans/) (High Desert plan cards, read 10/15/26) - [api.census.gov/data/2024/acs/acs5](https://api.census.gov/data/2024/acs/acs5) (U.S. Census Bureau, ACS 2020-2024 5-year, tables B19013, B25034, B08301, B28004, B28005, pulled 2026-10-16) ### Talk to a person - Call [775-575-9593](tel:7755759593) [775-391-5660](tel:7753915660) Open 9-5 every day - Email [info@hdiss.net](mailto:info@hdiss.net) [Check my address](https://hdiss.net/check-availability/#check) ### Businesses by ZIP | ZIP | Establishments | Employees | |---|---|---| | [89508](https://hdiss.net/internet-by-zip/89508/) | 85 | 660 | | Total | 85 | 660 | U.S. Census Bureau, ZIP Code Business Patterns 2023 (all sectors), retrieved 2026-10-02.

Each plan has a data transfer limit; ask us for yours at [info@hdiss.net](mailto:info@hdiss.net). Ask about 1 Gig / 1 Gig. Our ultra-low-latency service with upload as fast as download, in some areas. Check your address and tick "Ask about 1 Gig / 1 Gig" and we will tell you if your address can get it. [About the 1 Gig / 1 Gig service](https://hdiss.net/internet-plans/gig-symmetrical/). Prices and speeds as published by High Desert Internet Services (hdiss.net, read 10/15/26). "Runs" lines use the FCC Household Broadband Guide and Broadband Speed Guide (fcc.gov), which the FCC calls rough guidelines; every High Desert plan is above the FCC's highest household band of more than 25 Mbps.

Not by name. It sits inside Washoe County, which we work in, and the address check settles each address. ### Will a hill block the link on my lot? It can. The path from the tower to the roof is what decides it, and a person looks at it before anything is promised. ### Do you offer a business phone number? The main number, 775-575-9593, is answered 9 to 5 every day for homes and businesses.
