Reliable home phone service in Everett, WA that doesn't require internet
Traditional copper wire (POTS) landline service is not available in Everett, WA. 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 Everett, WA 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 3,651 seniors in Everett 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 Everett residents to cell towers. And Everett is well-covered by cell towers; there are several cell towers in Everett, covering 33 square miles. Cell towers have excellent coverage within a 5-mile radius, so there are plenty of cell towers in Everett to provide strong coverage across the city. Community Phone serves every inch of Everett, not just the most populated zip codes like 98208, 98204, 98203.
Landline phone service usage in Everett is alive and well. Nearly 2/3rds of people over the age of 65 still use a landline. 13.1% of Everett's 111,475 people are over the age of 65, which means about 9,492 senior citizens in The City of Smokestacks still use landlines. Additionally, according to recent Pew Research data, 20% of seniors don't have any cell phone at all, meaning that 2,921 Everettites completely rely on landlines for their phone service.
