When your coverage (e.g. Starlink) is over 1,000,000 square miles, does the density even matter?

Not when you have 5 people per mile.

Maybe that's good for competition?

I get that, but in these cases where I’m looking the location is serviced by 
internal fiber such as a university or the power companies own connectivity and 
so that’s why nobody else reports service there but yet somebody’s getting 
money to cover it with wireless.

Bigger than that though we now have three competing funds all servicing the 
same areas.

We have RDOF, CARES, and ACT power grants. We literally have three networks 
being built by three different companies over the same area

Every census block was assigned a certain number of "locations" that are

subsidize Starlink in 35 states

So we just looked into this and SpaceX is doing a power grab. They literally 
have little dots around the area up and sometimes big areas that don’t have 
people in them.

It appears they have applied for funding to service the electric substation’s 
and athletic fields and other places where no one lives and that’s why there’s 
no broadband being reported.
