Form 477 records count census blocks a provider reports it can serve, not subscribers or homes connected, a measure of reported reach.

Record scope. Counts are Form 477 records flagged as offered to consumers; at least 90% of this provider's filings are. How the count is scoped.

Charter Communications state-reach reading

Among 2,138 Form 477 providers on this site, Charter Communications 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.

Charter Communications's filings are geographically dispersed; even the lead state (Texas) is only 11.1% of the book (251,390 records). 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.
