Reliable, High-Speed Internet from Xfinity Now Available to 10,000 Additional Homes and Businesses in Blair County, PA

PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Comcast has reached a major milestone in Blair County, connecting more than 10,000 new homes and businesses in the City of Altoona and Logan Township to multi-gigabit, symmetrical Internet from America’s smartest and most reliable converged network. As a new connectivity provider in Altoona, Xfinity brings Internet, mobile, entertainment, and smart home services together to give customers more speed, savings, and control over their connected lives.

“It was easy to switch to Xfinity Internet, and I immediately noticed an increase in speed and reliability when getting online,” said Donald, an Altoona resident. “The Xfinity team treated me with excellent customer service. I’m telling my neighbors to switch, too!”

Residents can visit Xfinity.com/mytown and enter their address for service availability and construction updates. They can also visit the Xfinity Store in State College, located at 1801 N. Atherton Street, to explore Xfinity Internet plans with a five-year price guarantee and Xfinity’s best-in-class WiFi Gateway included, as well as deals on Xfinity Mobile. Additionally, business leaders can connect with a Comcast Business expert in store.

Communities from Eldorado and Mill Run to Lakemont and just north of Prospect Park have now joined the more than 64 million homes and businesses nationwide with access to Xfinity and Comcast Business products and services that fuel innovation, productivity, and everyday connection.

“It’s exciting to have another provider in town that offers our residents and businesses a new option for connectivity,” said Matt Pacifico, Mayor, City of Altoona. “We applaud the significant progress being made to bring Xfinity and Comcast Business to more of our community, providing a top-tier choice for engaging in the digital world.”

This milestone represents major progress toward ultimately connecting nearly 30,000 additional homes and businesses across the City of Altoona and Logan Township. It builds on the momentum of recent expansion into Blair Township, Allegheny Township, Duncansville Borough and Hollidaysburg Borough – part of Comcast’s latest investment to bring the nation’s smartest, most reliable network to more communities throughout Blair County.

“We’re proud to bring our state-of-the-art network further into Altoona through this ongoing expansion project,” said Ricky Frazier Jr., Regional Senior Vice President. “With multi-gigabit speeds from our advanced network, cost-saving wireless options with Xfinity Mobile, and a five-year price guarantee on Xfinity Internet, we’re giving thousands of new residents the tools to work smarter, stream faster, and stay seamlessly connected.”
