Scranton Telephone Company state-reach reading
Scranton Telephone Company opens on geographic reach: #488 of 2,138 filers by states with filings (1 state), with 162 records behind that footprint.
Scranton Telephone Company sits in the lower third of Form 477 providers by record volume (< 329). Thin filing books still matter when they dominate one state or a niche technology pocket rather than a national residential footprint.
Iowa alone accounts for 100.0% of Scranton Telephone Company's filings (162 of 162), 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.
