California Internet state-reach reading
California Internet opens on geographic reach: #187 of 2,138 filers by states with filings (2 states), with 2,093 records behind that footprint.
Among 2,138 Form 477 providers on this site, California Internet sits in the upper third by record volume (≥ 2,064). Large books usually mean many census blocks marked served, not that every block has active subscribers.
California alone accounts for 99.6% of California Internet's filings (2,084 of 2,093), a concentrated book where one state can swing the national picture. Form 477 historically let providers mark a whole census block from a single reachable address; treat these counts as declared capability, not address-level availability, speed, or price.
