In 2005, the town of McIntosh, New Mexico, changed its name to "Telecom City" to qualify for free Cable Television service. This name change was part of a promotion by a telecommunications company to expand its services to areas with low population density. The quirky move garnered media attention and highlighted the lengths some small towns might go to improve their access to modern amenities.
