READFIELD, Maine — Nov 21, 2024 — Fidium has expanded its multi-gig, symmetrical speed internet service to Readfield, making its future-proof fiber network available to more than 1,800 homes and businesses.
Recent studies confirm that fiber broadband drives economic growth, in particular for rural communities, increasing business growth by 213% and leading to 44% higher GDP. For individuals, fiber access resulted in self-employment growth of 10% and increased per capita income by 18%. Fiber also increases real estate values, as single-family homes with fiber access have a 4.9% higher value than those without. Fidium’s expansion of its all-fiber network brings these opportunities to Readfield, and all the benefits that come with access to a fiber broadband connection.
“For rural communities, fiber transforms how we connect with one another, increasing access to educational, economic, healthcare and entertainment opportunities and option,” said Sarah Davis, vice president of Market Development for Fidium. “We are proud to help build the future in Readfield, lighting up these and more communities in Maine and connecting them to the benefits of Fidium.”
Today, more than 294,000 Maine homes and businesses have access to Fidium, including Fayette, Livermore Falls, Oakland and more communities, with additional availability coming soon across the state.
