Midcontinent Communications state-reach reading
Midcontinent Communications opens on geographic reach: #49 of 2,138 filers by states with filings (6 states), with 52,074 records behind that footprint.
Among 2,138 Form 477 providers on this site, Midcontinent 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.
The lead state (North Dakota) holds 43.6% of Midcontinent Communications's filings (22,686 records). That is a moderate peak: several states still move this filer's national total. 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.
