4G LTE & 5G Coverage In Freedom

The table below shows the proportion of Freedom with coverage from different cellular technologies.

Network	4G Coverage	5G Coverage
AT&T	100%	100%
T-Mobile	100%	100%
Verizon	100%	100%
Dish	0%	96%

Don't be alarmed by Dish's lack of 4G coverage in Freedom. Dish has a newly-built network that's 5G-only.

US Cellular And Dish Roaming Coverage

US Cellular does not have native coverage in Freedom. However, some US Cellular subscribers may still have coverage in Freedom thanks to roaming agreements.

The 96% figure for Dish may understate what subscribers in Freedom experience after accounting for roaming agreements.

Freedom Cell Signal Strength

There are 25 map hexes within the census-defined boundaries of Freedom. The table below shows the proportion of hexes at various levels of signal strength. Where both 4G and 5G coverage is available, data is drawn from whichever technology offers a stronger signal.

Network	Strong	Decent	Weak	None
AT&T	0%	40%	60%	0%
T-Mobile	8%	52%	40%	0%
Verizon	12%	76%	12%	0%
Dish	0%	68%	28%	4%

For most purposes, decent signals are perfectly sufficient. Weak or non-existent signals cause far greater degradation in user experience.
