215 first assigned

215 came first, in 1947

01 — Pennsylvania at a Glance

Pennsylvania, by the numbers.

Pennsylvania started in 1947 with four area codes: 215 for Philadelphia, 412 for Pittsburgh, 717 for central and eastern Pennsylvania, and 814 for the northwest — unchanged for nearly fifty years.

Philadelphia's suburbs forced the first split in 1994: 610 took the western and northern parts of 215's territory, leaving 215 the city and close-in suburbs.

The 1990s brought more codes — 724 for Pittsburgh's suburbs, 570 for the northeast — plus overlays 484 and 267 on the southeast codes, and 878 over 412/724 in 2001.

Growth continued into the 2010s: 272 overlaid 570 in the northeast in 2013, and 223 overlaid 717 in central Pennsylvania in 2017.

Did you know?

Pittsburgh's original 412 area code has spawned two overlays over the decades, 724 and 878, meaning callers in the same neighborhood can now have three different area codes on their phones.
