Find any 656- phone number in Florida
The 656 area code, which is under the North American Numbering Plan (NANP), covers a large geographic area across the state of Florida. The area code is one of the fifteen area codes currently in use in the state of Florida. The NANP is a system used for assigning area codes to specific geographic areas, and it is overseen by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). This system was created to standardize telecommunication resources, such as landlines and cellular phones, throughout the United States, Canada, and a few other countries in the Caribbean and northern Pacific region.
The 656 area code designates a geographic area that ranges from northwest Florida to the Atlantic coast. This area includes the cities of Tallahassee, Daytona Beach, and Ocala, as well as many others. Several other area codes cover the state of Florida, including the 304, 352, 786, 813, 850, and 954 area codes. Each area code is assigned in a specific pattern—the 656 area code is assigned to the Florida Panhandle, while the 954 area code covers the southeastern part of the state. To make phone calls within each area, local residents only need to dial the seven-digit number assigned to the party they want to reach. Calls to other area codes must be dialed with the 10-digit number, including the area code.
