Reliable home phone service in Sacramento, CA that doesn't require internet
Traditional copper wire (POTS) landline service is not available in Sacramento, CA. 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 Sacramento, CA 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 17,665 seniors in Sacramento 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 Sacramento residents to cell towers. And Sacramento is well-covered by cell towers; there are several cell towers in Sacramento, covering 98 square miles. Cell towers have excellent coverage within a 5-mile radius, so there are plenty of cell towers in Sacramento to provide strong coverage across the city. Community Phone serves every inch of Sacramento, not just the most populated zip codes like 78542, 28269, 90706.
Landline phone service usage in Sacramento is alive and well. Nearly 2/3rds of people over the age of 65 still use a landline. 13.3% of Sacramento's 531,285 people are over the age of 65, which means about 45,930 senior citizens in Sactown still use landlines. Additionally, according to recent Pew Research data, 20% of seniors don't have any cell phone at all, meaning that 14,132 Sacramentans completely rely on landlines for their phone service.
Many landline alternatives require internet, but that's not an option for many Sacramentans. 10.50% of Sacramento's 187,683 households do not have the internet at all, which means 19,707 households can't use internet-based landline service.
