The price sucks. And for several years the internet service itself used to go out on a near weekly basis.

Is this a BRC mult or just a new "humble bragger"?

So do I.

A contractor cut the line and the need to redo a whole large section of relaying fiber underground.

Quite a cluster****.

To be fair, $500k won't get you that far in a lot of big cities these days.

His point wasn't a humble brag. He was countering the point that nicer neighborhoods have better internet service choices. I'm in the same boat. We have the choice of ATT Uverse or nothing (besides shitty cell internet)

I’ve been working from home since 2016. Only had one outage. Using Frontier broadband.

Yeah WTF, you living way out in the country? You can’t find a house around here for $500K. We paid $350K in 2013 at the very bottom of the market. The house we lived in lees summit for years we bought for $230K is now worth $500K.

LOL, that's not even a little true, unless "around here" means beachfront property... there's plenty of relatively cheap property around St. Pete.

In my neighborhood every house is worth at least 1.5mm and we have nine choices of internet providers.

Sure if you want to live in poor or undesirable neighborhoods.

So... all of St Pete, minus that one stretch north of downtown and the beachfront stuff is poor and undesirable?

(and these are all listed as houses with at least one bed/one bath; no condos/studio apts/lots of land/etc.)

Does anyone have 5G home internet from Verizon or T-Mobile?

I have google too.
Dude why are you arguing? Just to argue? You think Dafsce is FOS too? WTF? Most of those houses are 800-1500 sq feet.

And yes, the only place that’s “most desirable” is downtown and on the water. Just like every other city in America.
