Find any 817- phone number in Texas
The 817 area code is a telephone numbering plan code whose associated geographic area covers much of the U.S. state of Texas. The 817 area code comes from the North American Numbering Plan (NANP), an integrated system of telephone networks operating in North America. The area code is one of eight that serves Texas, covering the counties of Parker, Tarrant, Johnson, Hood, and others in the Fort Worth-Arlington and Dallas-Fort Worth Combined Statistical Areas.
The NANP assigns area codes for each geographic area and divides each geographic area into Local Access and Transport Areas (LATAs). In the U.S., Area Codes may be assigned to a specific state. In Texas, each area code is linked to a LATA, comprising of counties served by a common local telephone carrier. The 817 NANP area code covers several LATAs in Texas and is usually used for residential landline telephone numbers as well as business and mobile numbers as well.
