Welcome to Richmond Township in Crawford County, Townville, PA

Penn State Researchers are conducting a study to determine the gaps in speeds and access promised by telecommunications companies and what they actually deliver.  Click here to access the study: https://www.measurementlab.net/p/ndt-ws.html

Over 800,000 Pennsylvania households lack affordable broadband internet.  They also estimate that 520,000 Pennsylvanians have limited or no broadband access and live in rural PA.  Act 183 of 2004 required telecommunications companies to provide  BROADBAND ACCESS to all PA residents. Companies such as Verizon took tax breaks the ACT offered and in return stalled and otherwise failed to full fill the ACTs requirements. Companies such as VERIZON worked the Harrisburg establishment to weaken and   

permanently  cancel any remaining requirements for the ACT183.  Now residents of RURAL PA such as those in Crawford and lower Erie Counties are left stuck with a substandard telecommunications system. For some of us, the old fashion dial up internet is our equivalent of the 21st century HI-SPEED HIGHWAY.
