Find any 424- phone number in California
The 424 area code is an area code that services Los Angeles, in California. This code is part of North American Numbering Plan (NANP), which is a system that assigns three-digit codes to telephone service areas across the United States, Canada and other countries. The numbers that are assigned to each area code are selected by a quasi-governmental organization, called the North American Numbering Plan Administration.
The 424 area code is one of the original 86 area codes created in 1947. The NANP is used mainly by phone companies for routing calls across the country, but it also serves as a tool for consumers to identify their location. When someone calls a number with a 424 area code, they know the call is coming from the Los Angeles area of California. The NANP also helps create geographic boundaries that determine the area codes assigned to each location. This helps ensure better call routing for customers in these regions.
