1947
317 first assigned
317 came first, in 1947
317 was Indiana's original area code, assigned in 1947. The newest, 463, arrived in 2016. Each of the 8 codes below maps to its own part of the state, so the code you pick shows which region you serve.
01 — Indiana at a Glance
Indiana, by the numbers.
Indiana entered the 1947 numbering plan with three area codes: 219 in the north, 317 for Indianapolis and central Indiana, and 812 in the south — unchanged for about fifty years.
Growth caught up in 1997, when 765 split off from 317 to cover central Indiana outside metro Indianapolis.
In 2001, 219 split into 574 (South Bend and Elkhart) and 260 (Fort Wayne and the northeast).
The 2010s brought overlays instead of splits: 930 over 812 in the south (2015) and 463 over 317 in Indianapolis (2016).
Did you know?
Indiana kept its original three area codes — 219, 317, and 812 — unchanged for about fifty years, longer than most Midwestern states managed before their first split.
