- The county picture, all providers. In Kanawha County, WV, providers report fiber at 100/20 Mbps or better to about 29% of residential units and cable to about 88%; about 11% of units have no wired service at 25/3 Mbps, and about 79,156 cable-served units have no cable offer with 100 Mbps upload — the upload gap fiber sells against.

Working Charleston
Frontier reports fiber to about 54% of Charleston's homes (FCC filing, December 2025). West Virginia's capital has a flat core of grid streets and hillier outer neighborhoods, so a route here would change block by block; the address check decides each door.
Charleston's housing is older and mostly detached: the ACS 2020–2024 estimates that 67.0% of homes are single-family detached, 2.8% were built in 2010–2019 and 0.4% since 2020. The city's comprehensive plan describes a flat core of grid streets, sidewalks and smaller lots, and notes hilly topography in North Charleston and steep slopes with narrow rights-of-way in Oakridge/Greenbrier. A route here would walk the core blocks and drive between the hillside streets. City Code requires a business license before doing any business in the city.
Charleston is West Virginia's capital. It counted 48,864 residents at the 2020 Census and 46,482 in the Census Bureau's 2024 estimate, on about 31.4 square miles of land along the Kanawha River. The city's FY2025 financial report ranks Vandalia Health, the system that includes Charleston Area Medical Center, first and the Kanawha County Board of Education second among Kanawha County's ten largest employers, with three state departments and the City of Charleston also on the list. The University of Charleston sits across the river from the Capitol complex. Housing is 67.0% single-family detached, and 63.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied (ACS 2020–2024). That is a labor pool weighted toward hospitals, schools and government offices, where set shifts can leave evenings or weekends open for 1099 contract work.

Where does Frontier have fiber in Charleston?
Frontier's own FCC filing reports fiber-to-the-premises at about 54% of Charleston's residential locations (FCC Broadband Data Collection, December 2025 filing, Census Place level), a little over half. That is a town-level share, not a street map: the filing does not say which neighborhoods are inside the footprint, so availability is per address and the address check decides each door. For comparison, the same filing puts Kanawha County as a whole at about 42%. Anyone planning a route in Charleston should expect some addresses to qualify and others not.
Do I need a license to sell door-to-door in Charleston, WV?
Charleston's Code makes it unlawful to carry on any business in the city "without first having procured a general business license" (Sec. 18-31). The city collector issues it, licenses expire each June 30, and a licensee with no fixed place of business must carry and show it on request (Secs. 18-33, 18-41, 18-42). Sec. 18-491 counts anyone who solicits "for the purpose of rendering any service" as a hawker or peddler. Article XI adds a license, a bond and consumer-protection registration for a "home solicitation sale": a "consumer credit sale in excess of $25.00" solicited away from the seller's fixed business establishment, where the buyer agrees or offers to buy (Secs. 18-521, 18-522). We found no door-to-door hours or sign rule in the code, codified through March 2026. Confirm with the city collector; 1099 independent contractors handle their own compliance.
What is the weather like for door-to-door work in Charleston?
NOAA's 1991–2020 climate normals for Charleston Yeager Airport put the average high at 86.0°F in July and 43.9°F in January, when the average low is 26.1°F. The station averages about 46 inches of precipitation a year, with July the wettest month at 5.38 inches, and about 31.5 inches of snow, most of it from December through March. On average 23.5 days a year reach 90°F. A route here would run longest from spring through fall, with rain gear in summer and short, cold afternoons in winter.
How is Charleston laid out for a walking route?
The city's comprehensive plan, Imagine Charleston, divides the city into the West Side, East End, Kanawha City, South Hills and Corridor G, North Charleston, Edgewood and Oakridge/Greenbrier. It describes the traditional core neighborhoods as flats with grid streets, sidewalks and smaller lots, which suit walking door to door. Farther out the ground rises: the plan notes hilly topography and low-density housing in North Charleston, and says sidewalks in Oakridge/Greenbrier are challenging because of steep slopes and narrow rights-of-way. A rep working this town would walk the core blocks and drive between streets on the hills. None of this shows where fiber is; availability is per address.
