Its in part due to geo-tagging of the IP address. With Spectrum (TWC), IPs are almost 'static' and typically geo-tagged to your residence, and are using standard IP addresses - non RFC 1918 (10.x.y.z, 192.168.x.y style).
T-Mobile effectively uses a NAT IP. As a result, your 'real' ip is at a POP / aggregator.
Run 'ifconfig.me' and then do a geo location lookup. It'll most likely be at an urban location where T-Mobile aggregates it NAT IP address to public.
