Local area code changes

Once in a while, we need to introduce new area codes so we can make more phone numbers available. This is called an area code overlay.

When this happens, you may have to dial your own area code to make a local call.

Local area code changes by state

Currently none

Your telephone number, including current area code.
The price of a call, coverage area, or other rates and services.
Whatever is considered a local call will remain a local call.
You can still dial just three digits to reach 911 and 988.
If 211, 311, 411, 511, 611, 711 or 811 services are currently available in your community, no extra digits are needed.
