Find any 352- phone number in Florida
The 352 area code is one of the original area codes in the North American Numbering Plan. It was assigned in 1958, and originally encompassed the northern part of Florida, including Gainesville, Ocala, Lake City and Palatka. The 352 area code still serves 39 counties in northern and central Florida, including parts of the greater Jacksonville, Orlando and Tampa metropolitan areas. These counties are part of the Florida Public Service Commission's 03 first-level district, which is the largest geographic region in the state.
The North American Numbering Plan is a system that organizes the phone numbers which are assigned to people and businesses in the 320 countries and territories across North America. It divides an assigned region into smaller geographical areas and assigns each area a three-digit area code. Each area has its own area code, and people are assigned a seven-digit local phone number which starts with the area code. New area codes are occasionally added as population and demand for services increase, though the original area code system still remains in place.
