Re: If naperville...

said by worldwebpirate :

I've done the reseach, As of the census of 2000, there were 128,358 people, 43,751 households, and 33,644 families residing in the city with a per capita income for the city at $35,551. Not very cherry at all.
That's 104.3k per household!
That's enormous, especially for Illinois

Problem is, rich households don't buy cable tv in strong numbers. I would be curious as to which areas AT&T did not want to build out too. I am guessing low density rather than anything that had to do with income. That's the big problem with high incomes; they have low household densities and hence are pretty unprofitable for buildouts.

Re: If naperville...

lol, you're right. The operative term was "per capita". Good catch.
