I've had ten or eleven different residences in the past fifteen years,
all but one in eastern or central Massachusetts.  The only ones I can
remember as not having modular jacks were real slum dwellings (would
you believe $7.60/week rent?).  Oh, and my dorm room at UMass.  (Is
that a slum?)

Since all phones today require modular jacks, it seems to me that any
dwelling that gets moved in to is going to have modular hardware installed
by the new occupants.  At what, three years or something between moves
for the average family, it shouldn't take long for all the housing
stock to be converted.
