Through Xfinity, residents will gain access to high-speed internet, mobile, voice, video, and home security services. Comcast Business will support local enterprises with scalable connectivity, cybersecurity, and networking solutions.

Comcast is also extending its Internet Essentials program, offering affordable internet and digital skills training to income-constrained households. The company remains actively involved in community events and promotions, such as the recent partnership with Angelo's Pizzeria.
