Venture Communications Cooperative, Inc. state-reach reading
Venture Communications Cooperative, Inc. opens on geographic reach: #488 of 2,138 filers by states with filings (1 state), with 139 records behind that footprint.
Venture Communications Cooperative, Inc. 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.
South Dakota alone accounts for 100.0% of Venture Communications Cooperative, Inc.'s filings (139 of 139), 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.
