Find any 214- phone number in Texas
The 214 area code is a telephone numbering plan code assigned to the Dallas, Texas metropolitan area. It was one of the original area codes established in October 1947 as part of the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) system. It serves over 6 million people in 27 cities and covers 414 square miles, making it one of the largest and most populous area codes of the NANP.
The 214 area code is part of the NANP's three-digit system, which assigns area codes and prefixes according to a geographic area. Each area code is divided into smaller sections, known as prefixes, and each prefix is followed by a four-digit local number. The 214 area code comprises prefixes ranging from 214-201 to 214-879 and is bordered by 469 and 972 area codes. All calls made within the 214 area code do not require the use of the area code, but calls to numbers that are not part of the 214-prefixed area require the area code to be included in the dialing sequence.
