I belive there are just few major cities in the US that have a comparable or higher concentration of people like other large cities around the world.
Does population density still REALLY matter ? Considering that fibre optic cables have a far longer reach than copper, and considering that the utility poles already exist in less densely populated areas, it would seem to me that fibre would be a superior alternative to copper, especially when you consider the costs of setting up remotes all over the place for copper. And I would reckon that laying fibre along existing utility poles to reach 200 homes would cost far less than laying fibre in a concrete high rise appartment building to reach 200 appartments. The way I view it, telco accountants have build *excuses* to not lay fibre instead of finding ways to justify laying it.
