Older housing changes the installation conversation

Of the housing units counted in ZCTA 19720, 34% were built before 1960; Delaware's figure is 21%, and the median year built here is 1972. If you live in one of the older homes, mention its age when you call and walk through the install details.

Questions to ask the provider:

  • Which wall or utility point would the outside line reach first at my home?
  • Would a new outside drop or new indoor run be needed, or can existing routes be used?
  • What would a technician need to see on arrival?
  • Which spot in the house suits the router, given the layout?

Write down the replies from each listed provider so they are easy to compare later.

Housing here differs from nearby ZIPs

Housing units built before 1960 make up a far larger share in this ZCTA than in nearby ZCTA 19701. That is context for your own planning: it does not tell you anything about that ZIP's providers, and your questions stay focused on your home.

Confirming a listing

When a provider's answer for your address does not match its listing, open your location on the FCC National Broadband Map, which shows what providers reported rather than what any home receives, and file an availability challenge there. Under FCC rules, a location counts as served if the provider serves it or could connect it through a routine installation within 10 business days without extraordinary charges. Once the address replies are in, you can compare internet providers on plan details, and New Castle internet providers covers the city as a whole.

Older-home questions for 19720 residents

Does an older home rule out the providers in the FCC records?

Not necessarily. Building age does not show which providers reach an address. Check the exact address and ask each provider what installation would involve.

What should I tell the provider about my house?

Say how old the home is, where you would like service to enter if you have a preference, and which room you use most. Ask what the technician would need to see.

Does the Fiber label mean fiber reaches my house?

Not necessarily, since the label belongs to the area sampled near 19720 and not to individual houses. When you call Xfinity and Verizon Fios, give the home's age and ask each one what connection it would actually install there.

How We Rank Providers & Where the Data Comes From

Provider names and sampled advertised technology and speed evidence on this page come from the FCC National Broadband Map and the FCC Broadband Data Collection (June 2025), sampled at H3 grid-cell granularity. ZIP results are shortlist evidence, not address-level serviceability. National catalog plans are excluded until market eligibility is proven. Confirm service, the current offer, and installation terms at the exact address. See our full ranking methodology.
