It is not so much that I live in any middle of no where nearest neighbor is 30 miles away type place. I have several neighbors that live close enough that I can hear them when they are fighting. In fact we run off city water. The problem is that the companies around here are very cheap and lazy. They pretty much just cover the city proper and anything outside of that doesn't get covered. So unless you live inside the city limits you just don't get these services. Now it has been getting better as of late. They have started to move outside the cities in the last couple of year. They have even been following the main roads in and out, which I live on. But they have only made it so far and stopped it at intersection that is only 1.8 miles from my house.
There was a federal grant for expanding the high speed internet network, and a few places applied for it. But if they get it, how long it will take, and if it is even going to run by house are still up in the air. I just think it might be easier to move, which I have been trying to do for a few years now but luck hasn't been on my side.
