More than 1,200 homes and businesses in Milan have gained access to Fidium's all-fiber network
MILAN, N.H., - Nov. 19, 2024 - Fidium Fiber has expanded its symmetrical, multi-gig speed internet service to Milan and Dummer, N.H., making its future-proof fiber network available to more than 1,200 homes and businesses.
Recent studies confirm that fiber broadband drives economic growth, in particular for rural communities, increasing business growth by 213% and leading to 44% higher GDP. For individuals, fiber access resulted in self-employment growth of 10% and increased per capita income by 18%. Fiber also increases real estate values, as single-family homes with fiber access have a 4.9% higher value than those without. Fidium's expansion of its all-fiber network brings these opportunities and all the benefits that come with access to a fiber broadband connection to these communities.
"In expanding fiber access, we are proud to help build the future in Milan and Dummer", said Jeffrey McIver, senior government relations manager for Fidium Fiber. "Fiber brings tremendous benefits and transforms how we connect to one another, especially in rural communities, increasing access to educational, economic, healthcare and entertainment opportunities and options. We are excited to bring the benefits of Fidium Fiber these and more communities across New Hampshire."
Today, more than 276,000 New Hampshire homes and businesses have access to Fidium, including in Berlin, Northumberland and Stark, with additional availability coming soon across the state.
