Comcast Boosts Kansas Communities with High-Speed Internet Expansion

Comcast has significantly expanded its next-generation network to Paola and Hillsdale, Kansas, connecting over 4,000 new homes and businesses to high-speed, symmetrical Internet. This expansion introduces Xfinity and Comcast Business services to the area, enhancing digital infrastructure and supporting economic growth. Local officials, including Miami County's Economic Development Director Janet McRae and Paola City Manager Randi Shannon, praised the project for its potential to improve quality of life and foster local business success. Comcast celebrated the expansion with a ribbon-cutting event and a $2,500 donation to My Father’s House, a nonprofit supporting underserved populations. The network promises multi-gigabit speeds, 99.9% reliability, and built-in security, positioning the community for success in a digital world.

The expansion is part of Comcast's broader commitment to Kansas, with over $38 million invested in technology and infrastructure over the past three years. Residents and businesses now have access to Xfinity's comprehensive suite of services, including Internet, video, mobile, voice, and home security, while Comcast Business offers solutions tailored to organizational needs. Beyond infrastructure, Comcast's Internet Essentials program aims to increase broadband adoption among eligible households, further demonstrating the company's dedication to community development and economic mobility.
