About this data
The underlying records are the FCC's own registrations as of 2026-08-23. Every structure counted here carries a registration number you can check against the FCC directly.
The FCC Antenna Structure Registration database covers structures that require registration — generally those over 200 feet or near airports. Many small cells, rooftop antennas and short towers are not registered and will not appear here.
"Owner" is the entity that registered the structure, usually a tower company such as American Tower or Crown Castle. It does not indicate which carriers operate equipment on the structure.
