The U.S. state of Washington has six telephone area codes. The state initially used a single area code until it was divided in 1957 with the creation of area code 509 to serve Eastern Washington. In 1995, 206 was split again to serve just the Puget Sound region after area code 360 was created for the remainder of Western Washington.
Area codes 602, 480, and 623 are telephone area codes in the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) for most of the Phoenix metropolitan area in the U.S. state of Arizona. Area code 602 is the oldest area code in Arizona and was assigned in 1947 for the entire state.
602 was the original area code for Arizona, and was split in 1995 into 602, serving metropolitan Phoenix, and 520, serving the remainder of the state. [1] In 1999, 602 was split into 480, 602, and 623, [2] which were recombined in 2023. [3] 520 was split in 2001 to form area code 928. [4]
Area codes are also assigned for non-geographic purposes. The rules for numbering NPAs do not permit the digits 0 and 1 in the leading position. [1] Area codes with two identical trailing digits are easily recognizable codes (ERC). NPAs with 9 in the second position are reserved for future format expansion.
