Reliable home phone service in Denver, CO that doesn't require internet
Traditional copper wire (POTS) landline service is not available in Denver, CO. Community Phone allows you to keep your landline phone without internet or copper wire.
In fact, Community Phone is the only landline phone service in Denver, CO that does not require internet. Other service providers such as Spectrum, AT&T, and Verizon require an internet connection or a bundle package with cable or internet.
According to survey results from Pew Research, "25% of people 65+ report never going online". That means that 22,611 seniors in Denver don't want their primary phone service tied to their internet, even if they do have internet.
Community Phone works by connecting the landline phones of Denver residents to cell towers. And Denver is well-covered by cell towers; there are several cell towers in Denver, covering 153 square miles. Cell towers have excellent coverage within a 5-mile radius, so there are plenty of cell towers in Denver to provide strong coverage across the city. Community Phone serves every inch of Denver, not just the most populated zip codes like 80219, 80015, 80134.

Nearly 2/3rds of people over the age of 65 still use a landline. 11.9% of Denver's 760,049 people are over the age of 65, which means about 58,790 senior citizens in Mile High City still use landlines.
