Re: So Basically said by fiberguy:By the way.. the city of Corcoran, MN is a town of 5,630 people as of the last count... they're pretty way out of the way for the St Paul MN system.. yet comcast has service out there, in the deep rural area of the metro, and most of the service is underground to boot.. in farm land country, where there are many roads that are dirt and not even paved. » en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corcoran,_Minnesota I thought most wires were underground in the midwest because of the high winds, storms and torndaoes? Here in the east most of the lines are above ground still even though at least 10 times a year we have trees knock lines down because of snow, ice, wind, or storms. | |

kudos:3 | Not really true... there are PLENTY of over head areas out here.. in the Twin Cities, we have mostly underground service in the newer areas just as with any other metro.. the thing is, the Twin Cities saw an INCREDIBLE amount of growth over the past few decades and sprawled a lot. With that, we do have a lot of underground areas, however, we also have a TON of over head.
The area of Corcoran that I'm talking about is rather old.. rural - and there IS a lot of farm land out here.. it's usually a place you'd find more over head than not. | |
