Alluvion Announces Plan to Expand Fiber Optic Network into Casa Grande, AZ in 2021
The need for fiber optics in Casa Grande, AZ has grown exponentially in recent years. As more individuals are working from home and attending online courses due to the COVID-19 pandemic, rural communities like Casa Grande have felt the impacts of having limited broadband infrastructure. New industries requiring large amounts of data have moved into the area which also contributes to the need for improved broadband infrastructure.
“One of our objectives here at Alluvion is to own our backyard. As an entity of the Gila River Indian Community, a presence in Casa Grande as a major step toward achieving this goal”, states Alluvion Brand Marketing Specialist Duncan Wiston. Alluvion is building its network to serve neighboring communities surrounding the Gila River Indian Community.
The presence of multiple internet service providers in a rural community offers several benefits to residents and businesses alike. Communities with several providers often experience lower costs for services due to an increased need for competitive pricing. Alluvion’s presence will also enable network diversity to businesses in the area which will reduce outage susceptibility.
