I checked your ZIP code, and one thing which stands out is having several rivers and lakes in the vicinity. From what I've read in the forums, water and Verizon don't get along for some reason. And just like the guy in the Verizon ad going "No, no, no!" at a washing machine, the water wins. Clearly a quirk of the network, as at least one of the competitors doesn't experience this issue with lakes. Another thing which can be causing interference is if you're close to an airport's radio tower, as I've seen reports that signal strength is terrible on Verizon in or around airports.
I'm not a Verizon employee, just another customer trying to help.
