3 supports carry only Bouygues Telecom.
Among the 67 Rhône towns with at least five masts, Ecully ranks 22nd by mast count. With 11 masts for 17,944 residents, or 6 per 10,000, it has fewer masts per inhabitant than the median for those towns (11).
At 8 km² with 17,944 residents, the commune is dense enough that most antennas sit on rooftops rather than pylons. It is part of the Métropole de Lyon intercommunal grouping.
