What’s that ISP service call look like?

“Hey, Comcast, I need internet at my new address”

“Sure, where is it?”

“60mi south of the Louisiana coast line and 45mi east of Mexico”

“…hmm, yea we can probably swing that, it’ll be an extra $10k for ftth, otherwise we’re only running copper”

Like your fun, but for some extra seriousness, 10k$ is the order of magnitude you pay to setup FTTH in a big city. Most times, consumer ISPs eat the cost and make economies of scale by connecting entire neighborhoods, but if you don't have that chance and for some reasons ISPs won't connect you you can count on 10-50k$ infrastructure bill.

Also, consumer ISPs like Comcast are the worst. If you have good relationships in your neighborhood/municipality, going collective like with SCANI/Freifunk is always going to be more interesting and useful.
