I just bought a house that has 50mbit service from comcast, but no dsl. The house is on the edge of a mid sized town in an outer suburb of a major us city. I am too far from the central office and they can't set up another office closer to my neighborhood. Because the radius of the town is about the same as the maximum distance for dsl and area around the town is sparsely populated, everyone who lives at the edge of town probably has the same problem.
Because comcast can install fiber directly to each neighborhood, they can easily offer fast internet to anyone who has a cable connection. Since the whole town has cable, I would guess that everyone in the town can get comcast internet.
