My DSL is 1.5 right now, but fiber cables and new repeater boxes are going in all around, they say 6-12 MB after the first of the year, and I'm 12 miles from town!

The distance you live from the city is irrelevant. What determines your available speed is how close you are to the fiber terminal box. New neighborhoods out in the country often have fiber going out to a box near the neighborhood. The local loop will just be just the distance through the neighborhood. If you live in the city, you are likely served by (old) copper wiring back to the main C.O. which could be miles away.
