RS Fiber Cooperative filing-volume reading
RS Fiber Cooperative opens on filing volume: #443 of 2,138 of 2,138 Form 477 filers by deployment records (4,606 records).
Among 2,138 Form 477 providers on this site, RS Fiber Cooperative 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.
Minnesota alone accounts for 100.0% of RS Fiber Cooperative's filings (4,606 of 4,606), 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.
