Comcast upgrades broadband in Massachusetts public housing
Comcast is upgrading internet service in public and affordable housing across Massachusetts as part of the state’s new Residential Retrofit Program. In this first funding round, the company is bringing high-speed, symmetrical broadband to buildings that have long had slower or uneven service.
The retrofit effort targets multi-family properties where residents often face limited options for reliable internet. By improving the underlying network, the program aims to give low-income households more stable connections for work, school and basic online services, without requiring them to move or change housing.
