- Title
- ACP Households by Zip Code [Michigan--Detroit]
- Description
- Discounts for Internet service through the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) ended June 1, 2024 due to lack of additional funding. Whether the program will receive additional funding in the future is uncertain. Please see ACP program information from the FCC for more details. The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) households data set summarizes household enrollments and subscriptions by month and zip code for beneficiary households located in Detroit zip codes. The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) is a U.S. government program to help low-income households pay for Internet services and connected devices. Households that participate in ACP receive discounts on qualifying broadband Internet services of up to $30 per month and can also receive a one-time discount of up to $100 to purchase a laptop, desktop computer, or tablet. Households can qualify for ACP based on participation in Lifeline or other service provider programs for low-income households, income at or below 200% of the federal poverty guidelines, participation in other Lifeline-qualifying programs such as SNAP or Medicaid, or participation in free and reduced-price school lunch and breakfast programs. Additionally, service providers can ask the FCC to approve an alternative verification process and use that approved process to check consumer eligibility. ACP program discounts first became available to eligible enrolled households on January 1, 2022. The ACP claims process is built on the Lifeline Claims System and this data set is derived from snapshots of all subscribers entered in the National Lifeline Accountability Database (NLAD) as of the first of each month. The ACP was created under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, also known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, and is administered by the independent not-for-profit Universal Service Access Co. under the direction of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Eligible beneficiaries who participated in the Emergency Broadband Benefit (EBB) program that was funded by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, were transitioned to ACP between January 1 and March 1, 2022. EBB was ACP's predecessor program and ran from May 12, 2021 until it was phased out on February 28, 2022. Due to the granularity of available data, households located in communities adjacent to Detroit that share a zip code such as Hamtramck and Highland Park are included in this data set. Fields program - Associated program for the data (ACP or EBB) data_month - Data month is associated with the subscriber snapshot for each claim month. If data month is listed as '5/1/2022', then the subscriber snapshot was captured on June 1, and the data represents the number of households in ACP as of June 1. This is the universe of subscribers that providers can claim for the May 2022 data month. zipcode - Zip code where the enrolled household is located. net_new_enrollments_alternative_verification_process - Difference between the current month Total Subscribers who qualified using an alternative verification process and prior month Total Subscribers who qualified using an alternative verification process. net_new_enrollments_verified_by_school - Difference between the current month Total Subscribers who qualified using school lunch program verification and prior month Total Subscribers who qualified using school lunch program verification. net_new_enrollments_lifeline - Difference between the current month Total Subscribers who qualified using the Lifeline program and prior month Total Subscribers who qualified using the Lifeline program. net_new_enrollments_national_verifier_application - Difference between the current month Total Subscribers who qualified using a National Verifier application and prior month Total Subscribers who qualified using a National Verifier application. net_new_enrollments_total - Difference between the total number of subscribers in the current and prior months. Calculated based on the sum of net new monthly enrollments verified by the school, lifeline, alternative verification process, and national verifier application programs. total_alternative_verification_process - Number of households in the ACP on the first of the month snapshot whose eligibility was determined via an FCC-approved alternative verification process. total_verified_by_school - Number of households in the ACP on the first of the month snapshot whose eligibility was verified based on participation in a school lunch program. total_lifeline - Number of households in the ACP on the first of the month snapshot whose eligibility was determined based on participation in Lifeline, a federal program that lowers the monthly cost of phone or Internet services. total_national_verifier_application - Number of households in the ACP on of the first of the month snapshot whose eligibility was determined via the National Eligibility Verifier (National Verifier) system. total_subscribers - Number of total households participating in ACP on the first of the month snapshot. If, for example, there were 100 subscribers enrolled as of the June 1, 2022 snapshot, then Total Subscribers for the 05/01/2022 (May 2022) data month would be 100.
