Reliable home phone service in Greenwood, IN that doesn't require internet
Traditional copper wire (POTS) landline service is not available in Greenwood, IN. 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 Greenwood, IN 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 2,215 seniors in Greenwood 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 Greenwood residents to cell towers. And Greenwood is well-covered by cell towers; there are several cell towers in Greenwood, covering 21 square miles. Cell towers have excellent coverage within a 5-mile radius, so there are plenty of cell towers in Greenwood to provide strong coverage across the city. Community Phone serves every inch of Greenwood, not just the most populated zip codes like 37013, 37211, 37042.

Nearly 2/3rds of people over the age of 65 still use a landline. 14.90% of Greenwood's 59,458 people are over the age of 65, which means about 5,759 senior citizens in Emerald City still use landlines.
