Rural America Before Federal Programs
Private utilities were unwilling to serve rural areas
• No industry or large loads for electric,
telephone, or sanitary water service in rural areas.
• Low return on investment due to low
population density.

Rural America Before Federal Programs
Impediments to service:
• Cost of basic service often exceeded farmer’s annual income;
• Telephone mutual companies lacked capital and expertise;
• No sources to finance construction of new facilities.
