I do not live in an area with muncipal Wi-Fi, but here is some information that you might be interested in.

According to Wired 16.03:

There are over 300 muncipal Wi-Fi projects out there, but of those 17 are dead, 22 are under consideration, 64 are under early development, 86 are under construction, and 116 are in operation. However, most of those under operation are in small towns, cities, and counties where the cost of maintaining such a network is small. Many of the dead projects are from big cities, including Washington D.C, San Francisco, Chicago, and Atlanta, since it was too expensive. The largest city with muncipal Wi-Fi is Philladelphia (6th largest city in the U.S.).

Interestingly, the map shown with this information does not show Long Island as anything, but it does show that New York, NY is under construction.
