I=E2=80=99ve been thinking of the same in my underserved area. Labor is =
$5/foot here and despite friends and colleagues telling me to move, it =
seems I have a sub-60 month ROI (and sub-year for some areas I=E2=80=99ve =
modeled with modest uptake rates of 15-20% where the other options are =
fixed wireless, Cellular data or dial).
Hope is to do a presentation in the fall or next year with progress. We =
have areas around here where Comcast, (AT&T or Frontier) don=E2=80=99t =
even serve. The municipality is off getting bids to build due to market =
failure by the incumbents to invest. municipal fiber is nigh on illegal =
here in Michigan but with no incumbent it is feasible and my hope is =
will lock out people who are unwilling to invest despite their market =
cap.
