Find any 620- phone number in Kansas
The 620 area code is part of the North American Numbering Plan, which helps to identify and locate telephone numbers throughout the continent. It was put into service in 1997 as part of a plan to create multiple area codes in Kansas. The 620 area code covers most of the western half of the state, reaching as far east as Manhattan and as far north as the Nebraska border. It includes all or parts of the cities of Dodge City, Garden City, Liberal, Ottawa, Wichita, and numerous others.
The purpose of the North American Numbering Plan and the associated area codes is to adequately divide up the numbering system such that each area code can contain a large enough pool of phone numbers to accommodate population and business growth. As population and businesses increase, the plan can be used to carve new area codes out of existing ones. The 620 area code exists as part of a system that ensures the efficient allocation of phone numbers and underlying telecommunications infrastructure.
