Reliable home phone service in Irving, TX that doesn't require internet
Traditional copper wire (POTS) landline service is not available in Irving, TX. 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 Irving, TX 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 4,698 seniors in Irving 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 Irving residents to cell towers. And Irving is well-covered by cell towers; there are several cell towers in Irving, covering 67 square miles. Cell towers have excellent coverage within a 5-mile radius, so there are plenty of cell towers in Irving to provide strong coverage across the city. Community Phone serves every inch of Irving, not just the most populated zip codes like 75061, 75060, 75062.
Landline phone service usage in Irving is alive and well. Nearly 2/3rds of people over the age of 65 still use a landline. 8.0% of Irving's 234,920 people are over the age of 65, which means about 12,216 senior citizens in Crooked I still use landlines. Additionally, according to recent Pew Research data, 20% of seniors don't have any cell phone at all, meaning that 3,759 Irving residents completely rely on landlines for their phone service.
Many landline alternatives require internet, but that's not an option for many Irving residents. 11.8% of Irving's 86,023 households do not have the internet at all, which means 10,151 households can't use internet-based landline service.
