Our area codes include:

Area code 229 location: Where is it, and what cities does it serve?
Area code 229 is located in southwestern Georgia, covering a wide region of small towns, rural communities, and historic cities. Established in 2001 as a split from area code 912, 229 serves major cities like Albany, Valdosta, Thomasville, Bainbridge, and Americus.

This region is known for its deep agricultural roots, rich Southern history, and growing educational and healthcare sectors. Albany, the largest city in the 229 area, is home to Albany State University and Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital, a major healthcare provider in the region. Valdosta, nicknamed “Winnersville,” is a vibrant college town with Valdosta State University and a strong presence in manufacturing and logistics. Thomasville is famous for its historic downtown, annual Rose Show, and charming Southern architecture.

Area code 229 covers a large and diverse area, including Dougherty, Lowndes, Thomas, Decatur, and Sumter counties. It reflects the unique pace of life in southern Georgia—where tradition, community, and progress intersect.

Whether you’re calling a business in downtown Albany, a college student in Valdosta, or a family home in Bainbridge, a 229 number connects you to the heart of Southwest Georgia.

229 borders other area codes such as 478 to the north, 912 to the east, and 850 just across the Florida state line to the south.

Area code 404 location: Where is it, and is it the same as 470, 678, or 943?
Area code 404 is located in Atlanta, Georgia, and is one of the most iconic and historic area codes in the state. Established in 1947 as one of the original North American area codes, 404 initially covered the entire state of Georgia. Today, it specifically serves the city of Atlanta and its core metropolitan area, and is synonymous with the heart of the Peach State.

Due to Atlanta’s rapid growth and increasing demand for new numbers, multiple overlay codes have been added—678 (1998), 470 (2001), and 943 (2022). These overlays share the same geographic region, meaning all four area codes (404, 470, 678, and 943) serve Atlanta and its surrounding metro area, requiring 10-digit dialing for all local calls.

The 404 area code represents the economic, cultural, and transportation hub of the Southeast. Atlanta is home to major Fortune 500 companies like Coca-Cola, Delta Air Lines, and UPS, as well as world-renowned institutions such as Emory University, Georgia Tech, and the CDC. It’s also a creative powerhouse, playing a key role in music, film, and tech.

From Midtown skyscrapers and Buckhead businesses to historic neighborhoods like Old Fourth Ward, a 404 number is a badge of authenticity and local pride for native Atlantans. It’s more than just an area code—it’s part of the city’s identity.

404 borders other Georgia area codes like 770 to the suburbs, 678/470/943 within the metro area, and 706 to the north.

Area code 470 location: Where is it, and is it the same as 404, 678, or 943?
Area code 470 is located in Georgia’s Atlanta metropolitan area and was introduced in 2001 as an overlay to help meet the growing demand for phone numbers in one of the fastest-expanding regions in the United States. It serves the same geographic area as area codes 404, 678, and 943, including the city of Atlanta and surrounding suburbs like Marietta, Sandy Springs, Alpharetta, Decatur, Roswell, and Smyrna.

As Atlanta’s population and business community exploded, the original 404 area code could no longer keep up with demand. Overlay codes like 678, 470, and 943 were introduced to ensure continuous availability of new numbers without changing existing ones. Today, 10-digit dialing is required for all local calls within these overlapping area codes.

The 470 area code places you in the heart of Georgia’s economic, cultural, and innovation corridor. Whether you’re calling a startup in Midtown Atlanta, a logistics firm near Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, or a university in Decatur, a 470 number connects you to Greater Atlanta’s pulse.

Home to major companies like Coca-Cola, Delta, and Home Depot, Atlanta is also a global hub for entertainment, tech, and transportation. From the BeltLine to Buckhead, the 470 area code stretches across both historic neighborhoods and booming business districts.

470 borders other area codes including 770, 706, and 912, and shares its coverage area with 404, 678, and 943—making it one of the most widely used codes in the state.

Area code 478 location: Where is it, and what cities does it serve?
Area code 478 is located in central Georgia, covering cities such as Macon, Warner Robins, Milledgeville, Dublin, Perry, and Fort Valley. It was established in 2001 as a split from the original 912 area code to better serve the growing population and telecommunications needs of the region.

This area code encompasses a mix of historic communities, military hubs, and growing suburban areas. Macon, the largest city in the 478 area, is known for its music heritage, historic architecture, and Mercer University. Just south of Macon, Warner Robins is home to Robins Air Force Base, one of Georgia’s largest employers and a major economic driver in the region.

Other cities in the 478 area—like Milledgeville, the former state capital, and Dublin, a key medical and logistics hub—contribute to the area’s rich cultural and economic landscape. Agriculture, education, aerospace, and healthcare are major industries supported by communities within the 478 code.

Whether you’re dialing a university in Macon, a military office in Warner Robins, or a local business in Perry, a 478 number connects you to the heart of central Georgia—where tradition, progress, and Southern hospitality go hand in hand.

Area code 478 is bordered by 229 to the south, 770/678/470 to the north and west (Greater Atlanta), and 912 to the east.

Area code 678 is located in northern Georgia and serves the entire Atlanta metropolitan area, including cities like Atlanta, Marietta, Sandy Springs, Roswell, Alpharetta, Decatur, and Duluth.

Whether you’re reaching a law office in Buckhead, a logistics firm near the airport, or a family home in Alpharetta, a 678 number is a trusted and recognizable part of Atlanta’s communication landscape.

678 is bordered by area codes like 770 to the suburbs, 706 to the north, and 478 to the south, while sharing its metro coverage with 404, 470, and 943.

Area code 706 is located in northern and west-central Georgia, covering a large and diverse region that includes cities like Augusta, Columbus, Rome, Dalton, LaGrange, Athens, and Toccoa. It was created in 1992 as a split from the 404 area code to serve communities outside the rapidly growing Atlanta metro.

Due to increasing demand for new phone numbers, area code 762 was introduced in 2006 as an overlay to 706. Today, both area codes serve the same geographic area, and 10-digit dialing is required for all local calls.

The 706 region spans historic towns, vibrant college communities, and industrial hubs. Augusta, known globally for The Masters golf tournament, is also a center for healthcare and cybersecurity.

Whether you’re calling a manufacturing plant in Rome, a boutique in Downtown Athens, or a military connection in Columbus, a 706 number connects you to the heart of Georgia’s heritage and growth.
Area code 706/762 stretches from the Tennessee border to the Alabama state line, and borders other Georgia codes such as 404, 770, 478, and 229, making it one of the most geographically wide-reaching area codes in the state.

Area code 762 location: Where is it, and is it the same as 706?
Area code 762 is located in northern and west-central Georgia and serves the same geographic region as area code 706. Introduced in 2006 as an overlay, 762 was added to meet the growing demand for new phone numbers in cities such as Augusta, Columbus, Athens, Rome, LaGrange, and Dalton. With both 706 and 762 now active, 10-digit dialing is required for all local calls in the region.

The 762 area code covers a wide and diverse part of Georgia—home to college towns, military bases, manufacturing hubs, and historic communities.

Area code 770 location: Where is it, and is it the same as 678, 470, or 943?

The 770 area code is associated with some of Georgia’s most affluent and fastest-growing suburbs, offering a mix of residential communities, major corporate headquarters, shopping districts, and tech corridors. Whether it’s Alpharetta’s tech parks, Marietta’s historic charm, or Gwinnett County’s diverse cultural centers, 770 reflects the growth and sophistication of Metro Atlanta outside the city core.

Area code 912 is located in southeastern Georgia, serving historic coastal cities and inland communities including Savannah, Brunswick, Statesboro, Hinesville, Jesup, Waycross, and Vidalia.

It is now recognized as the primary code for Georgia’s Coastal Empire and parts of the Golden Isles region.

As Georgia’s population grew, area code 912 was reduced in size with the creation of 229 and 478, but it remains a vital identifier for one of the state’s most culturally rich and scenic regions.

Savannah, the region’s largest city, is known for its historic architecture, Spanish moss-lined streets, and booming port economy. It’s a hub for tourism, logistics, education, and film production.
