Only 2 bars in the city of Charlottesville VA?

I've traveled all over the country with my phone and my hometown of Charlottesville Virginia 22903 has the absolute weakest signal of nearly anywhere I have been and that's mostly in the boonies which is why I have Verizon.   How can it be that I am in a town with a major university and my signal is so poor??    Who can explain this to me or do something about it??

SherryB07, seeing that this is your hometown, I can absolutely see how a weakened signal would leave you puzzled. I am here to uncover the root cause of your service concerns. Please shed light on what service (call, text, or data) is being the most impacted. Is the issue happening indoor or outdoor? Please provide me details on if any other Verizon users or users on your account are impacted in the same way.

Two bars is the best I get. Sometimes only 1. The 4G send/receive indicators also come and go. This is on a Galaxy S5. Indoors and outdoors. Data is most affected but phone calls as well. I’ve given up texting. Happens to my husband as well. Hope that helps. Where in the world is the tower?
