Service Improvements in Hoodland Ore Area
I live 1 mile north of Welches Oregon on the north side of the Sandy River. Despite this areas constant growth and its popularity as a resort gateway to Mt. Hood, the lack of coverage here is alarmin...
Yup. similar to many rural areas, TMobile often uses the big macros to 'cover' large areas, and most often use terrain. Unlike At&t and Verizon, which both appear to have local towers in Welches, TMobile has decided it isn't worthy, and 'service exists'. I'd recommend their messaging for support, and push a request. This is a consumer forum.
Similarly, you can dial 611, but expect to go through low-level troubleshooting before you can escalate
I suspect that this is a little different. It appears that both Verizon and AT&T are on a colocated tower.

Typically in urban areas, its much more difficult due to regulations. In some rural areas (National Forest), it can be difficult as you have to deal with building on federal land.
