The death of 3G killed phone reception here in Michigan, get out of a few larger cities and it can get pretty spotty. 4G was never fully developed and now has to carry all the voice traffic 3G used to carry. Town I work near no longer has reliable T-Mobile (old Sprint) reception through most of it since 2022.
