Re: Nice, but...... I live in a City (Hesperia) with a population of about 60,000 and Charter Pipeline is It. But then again Charter is It for the entire Victor Valley area (Victorville, Apple Valley & Hesperia) which has a combined population of about 200,000 people total.  And that doesn't even include th surrounding county areas (50,000 to 150,000 there possibly). So It's Charter Pipeline or If You are less than 3 miles from a Verizon CO - DSL. It's either Cable, DSL, Dial-up or Satellite.
Edit: Our City has a Non-Exclusive Franchise agreement with charter too, But No one else will come in to the area at all.

| Most of the towns around here just renewed the franchise agreement with Charter, Comcast, Adelphia, etc... didn't even bid on it. I think the main thing is Charter's cable rates for digital cable and the channel offerings are more competitive than most cable companies and they probably wouldn't see many people move over and stay. Just a quick note, a population of 60,000 means you probably have about 20,000-25,000 possible accounts (houses/apartments). Auburn has 16,000 people but only 5,000 living areas. Each home/apartment can only have one account, so that's the number the cable companies are going to care about. | |
