Comcast announced it has connected the first residents in Leonardtown, Maryland to Xfinity and Comcast Business services. These are the first of 5,800 homes and businesses that Comcast is connecting in the Leonardtown area.
This expansion deepens Comcast’s investment in St. Mary’s County – where the company is undergoing a broader network expansion – ultimately connecting more than 30,000 residents and businesses across the county.
The company expects to reach a milestone of connecting 50 percent of residents and businesses included in the expansion project by summer 2025, and to complete the entire project by 2028. Xfinity and Comcast Business services are already available to thousands of addresses in St. Mary’s County.
