Reliable home phone service in Phoenix, AZ that doesn't require internet
Traditional copper wire (POTS) landline service is not available in Phoenix, AZ. 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 Phoenix, AZ 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 48,398 seniors in Phoenix 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 Phoenix residents to cell towers. And Phoenix is well-covered by cell towers; there are several cell towers in Phoenix, covering 517 square miles. Cell towers have excellent coverage within a 5-mile radius, so there are plenty of cell towers in Phoenix to provide strong coverage across the city. Community Phone serves every inch of Phoenix, not just the most populated zip codes like 85142, 85364, 85032.
Landline phone service usage in Phoenix is alive and well. Nearly 2/3rds of people over the age of 65 still use a landline. 11.0% of Phoenix's 1,759,943 people are over the age of 65, which means about 125,836 senior citizens in Valley of the Sun still use landlines. Additionally, according to recent Pew Research data, 20% of seniors don't have any cell phone at all, meaning that 38,719 Phoenicians completely rely on landlines for their phone service.
Many landline alternatives require internet, but that's not an option for many Phoenicians. 14.00% of Phoenix's 580,835 households do not have the internet at all, which means 81,317 households can't use internet-based landline service.
