Based on https://fiber.google.com/cities/kansascity/, I'd guess $150-250.

Why 20G over a 25G PON? And what exactly is 25G PON?
It is not NG-PON2 which is 40G PON. And also not High Speed PON which is 50G PON?
And while it is nice we have a path towards 20G Internet, we need to mandate internet connection to every home where you the technology now could get you to 10Gbps as long as customer is willing to pay and upgradable to 20G or 50G in future. Which pretty much guarantee only fibre or FTTx works.
