— August 6, 2019 — Tech
Verizon's 5G network will be expanded into four new cities, which include Atlanta, Detroit, Indianapolis, and lastly Washington, DC. This brings Verizon's total number of 5G cities to nine. The already existing 5G networks were located in Denver, Providence, St. Paul, Minneapolis as well as Chicago. Verizon's 5G network is said to expand to a total of 30 cities by the end of 2019.
