Find any 308- phone number in Nebraska
The 308 area code is an area code for the North American Numbering Plan (NANP). It serves the state of Nebraska and parts of western and south-central Iowa. It is one of the 87 original NANP area codes established in October 1947. 308 is bordered by the 405, 814 and 515 area codes and the states of Colorado, Kansas, South Dakota and Wyoming.
The NANP is a system that divides the geographic areas of the U.S. and Canada into ten-digit telephone numbers. It allows telecommunication systems, such as landlines, cell phones, and internet services, to be identified by a three-digit area code followed by a seven-digit local number. Area codes are determined by geographic boundaries and are assigned in a way that minimizes the need to change them. A single area code can cover a wide region or multiple smaller jurisdictions. Phone numbers in Nebraska's 308 area code are prefixed with the area code and a specific three-digit number called a central office code. Central office codes are standard within each area code and are used to identify a specific local service provider.
