Renting in mid-size buildings

Close to half of occupied homes in ZCTA 23228 are renter-occupied (48%), a larger share than the 33% for Virginia. Buildings with five to nineteen units also hold a higher share of housing units here than statewide. Enter the unit number each time you look up the address, and ask building management:

• Which of Xfinity and Verizon Fios has served other units in this building?
• Which wall plate in the unit connects to the outside line?
• Who lets an installer into the building and the unit?

Renters comparing units can open the apartment internet guide too. Renter-occupied homes are 23% of occupied homes in nearby ZCTA 23060, compared with 48% in ZCTA 23228.

Older buildings and where the line comes in

Virginia's share of housing units built before 1960 is 19%; ZCTA 23228 reaches 33%. If your building is one of the older ones, ask the provider whether new wiring would be needed and where the line would meet the structure. Settle on the room that will hold the router first, then ask the installer whether the line can end there in a building of that age.

Checking a listing

If a listing for your unit looks wrong on the FCC National Broadband Map, you can file an availability challenge from that location. Henrico residents can compare internet providers or open the Henrico internet providers hub before calling building management.
