Anybody know when Cricket is coming to Cincinnati?

I've been looking for a carrier for awhile now (atleast a year). I have prepay with Verizon right now on my old school Samsung SCH-411. I wsa thinking of going with T-mobile to switch it up but they just discontinued the phone I wanted. So I was checking on here and saw that Cricket is going to cover Cincinnati soon (I emailed them a year ago or so and they said they had no intention of getting it here anytime soon.)
Does anybody have any clue when it's coming here? It would be right up my alley for having a cell phone.

Thanks in advance. 😎

Just got an email back for whoever would be interested in this area. As of 12/14, they said they hope to get it within 2 years.

Maybe not for those in lower Michigan, who got acquired by Verizon Wireless, because Cricket never fully built up the network, and either they couldn't afford to, or saw no long-term survival in Michigan that they sold what little their network was built, and licenses for the rest of Michigan to Verizon Wireless, along with the customer base in that state. Now areas that Cricket would have covered are now being covered by Verizon Wireless, like New Buffalo & Benton Harbor, and many suburban areas around Battle Creek & Kalamazoo. If Cricket comes to Cincinnati, how long will they plan to stay there before they decide to sell it off to Verizon, or even Alltel, or even US Cellular?
