Out of curiosity what are costs of unlimited plans in USA and how hard is it to get those in more rural areas?

Just want to compare it to my current connection which is unlimited traffic, 460KBs down /~60KBs up for €19.99/month. (It also includes a landline which isn't in use - it's the only provider in my area and cheapest offer they have)

Edit: Wording

I live in a big city, in a neighborhood full of students. My three roommates and I pay a total of $60 a month for a residential connection with a soft cap of 250G per month. The cable company claims that it's rated for 12 megabits, but it's more like 3 or 4 in reality.

If you want an unlimited plan from my provider, you'll have to get a business connection. A friend of mine has that. He gets 50M down, 10M up with no cap for $100 per month.
