1947
503 first assigned
503 came first, in 1947
503 was Oregon's original area code, assigned in 1947. The newest, 458, arrived in 2010. Each of the 4 codes below maps to its own part of the state, so the code you pick shows which region you serve.
01 — Oregon at a Glance
Oregon, by the numbers.
Oregon's 503, assigned in 1947, covered the whole state for nearly 50 years. On Nov. 5, 1995, it split — 503 kept Portland and Salem, and 541 took the rest.
Portland kept growing, so regulators overlaid 971 onto 503's territory on October 1, 2000, rather than splitting again.
By the mid-2000s, 541 ran low on numbers around Eugene, Corvallis, and Medford. Overlay 458 went into service February 10, 2010, on the same 541 territory.
Oregon's four codes now pair up: 503/971 for the Portland metro, 541/458 for the rest of the state.
Did you know?
Oregon's second area code, 541, covers nearly the entire state outside the Portland metro area, an enormous territory stretching from the Pacific coast to the high desert, all sharing numbers with its later overlay, 458.
