Before I took a municipal job I was a foreman on a fiber crew
for a while and in Indiana the rural electric companies are
eating up all the grant money they can get to install rural fiber
and there is tons of grant money to be had. You can mention
it to the neighbors but I seriously doubt it will matter. The goal
is fiber to everyone so I’d say unless you are in a cabin off the
grid 20 miles in the wilderness you will get it. We have had
ours for about 4 months now and it is amazing. I sit on some
local boards with the CEO of our rural electric company and
they are about 1/4 of the way into a 5 year project. They are
going to first get it to every rural electric company then they
will come back and start feeding it into the towns that are
within there limits. He was telling me that they are basically
from lack of a better term making a killing off of the idiots that
don’t take it when they come by because it is free to get it to
your house when they are on your phase but if you decline it
then decide you want it there is a $500 charge to run a drop to
your house and as soon as someone hears about how good it
is or tries a friend or family’s they are calling to get it installed.
So I’d say it’s not if but more of when you get it.
