YouTube TV is finally nearing nationwide availability. The streaming TV service first launched in February 2017, and it has been gradually rolling out to additional markets since then. YouTube says the top 100 US markets already have access to YouTube TV. But today, the company is announcing another significant expansion: 95 more markets are being added effective immediately, which is enough to cover “98 percent of US households” when combined with areas where the service is already available. YouTube claims the remaining markets necessary for true nationwide coverage will be coming soon afterward.

“That’s exciting news for living rooms, cord cutters, and cord-nevers from Bozeman to Gainesville, Anchorage to Yuma, and Erie to Topeka,” YouTube TV program manager Ben Moores wrote in a blog post.
