Why is signal strength so poor?

I posted this same issue a few months ago when I was using a galaxy s6 - I used to have decent signal in my house, now I have to leave my neighborhood, not just my house, to get a signal strength better than 1x...which is basically no signal at all.

With the S6, I was told to switch to VoIP and use Verizon's message system. I did and it worked well enough, except I hate the Verizon text service.

Now, with the S9, I have the same poor 1x signal, but even using VoIP, calls are difficult to connect and the connection is poor. The verizon text service is no better than the Samsung text app. I can't send pictures, or large size messages at all. What gives, Verizon? I'm in the Maryland suburbs of DC, but I see people all over the country posting similar issues. What happened to the verizon network??
