Comcast, at least in my neck of the woods, hands out /56s. On 12/19/17 4:03 PM, Grant Taylor via NANOG wrote:

Providers assigning a single /64 or a /128 to an always-on customer are doing it wrong. You know who you are.
The cable ISP that I had (prior to moving) assigned a single /64 for the outside of the router. I could also request provider delegation for something that I could use internally breaking into multiple /64s. I just don't remember if it was a /56 or /60.
The point being that the outside of the SOHO router and the inside PD were two different DHCP processes, both of which needed to happen.
