Why not Ferndale?
My question exactly!
No Semiahmoo. Interesting. My confidence in Ziply (their regular phone service) has never been high. But I hope for everyone’s sake they can deliver with fiber and give Comcast some serious competition.
Ferndale is waiting to be built out and is due to start this year. I am an inspector for these builds and have been involved in the projects.
