Re: yet not in KC....

The cost in NC should be no different than CA.
Standalone:
Residential 50/5 is $75/month
Residential 30/5 is $65/month

I would not expect it to be any different.

Why would it not be different? They are two different markets, with different cost structures.

So why the markup on Business Class?

12/1.5 is $144 per month, and that's before you tack on $20 per month for a static. Does this "Business Class" offer an SLA? Hell no. They say they "prioritize business traffic over residential traffic on their network" but you wouldn't know it by the downright horrible pings and speeds. Unfortunately the only other option for HSI for Business where this office is located in Verizon Business DSL (which is really hard to get now) with nothing better than 7M/768.

If you want an SLA, your cheapest option in LA with Business Class is 5/5 Fiber, for $750 a month.

Yes the pricing will be different. TWC has a monopoly in NC it doesn't have that luxury in California so would have to compete with other ISPs. Can't gouge the customer when they can go to another ISP. Its no secret why they paid to get a ban on municipalities supplying Broadband services in NC. Shame on the NC govt for whoring themselves out to TWC with their votes.
We don't want to service/sell broadband in unprofitable areas of NC but we'll be damned if we will let others provide it- The sheer audacity sickens me!
