Area code 540 is located in western and north-central Virginia, covering a broad region that includes cities such as Roanoke, Fredericksburg, Harrisonburg, Blacksburg, Salem, Staunton, Culpeper, and Winchester. Introduced in 1995 as a split from the 703 area code, 540 serves a diverse area that spans from the Blue Ridge Mountains to the outskirts of Northern Virginia.

Known for its mix of historic towns, college communities, and mountain landscapes, the 540 area code is home to several key educational and economic centers.

Blacksburg is home to Virginia Tech, one of the state’s largest universities and a national leader in research and innovation. Fredericksburg, on the northern edge of the 540 region, blends colonial history with rapid suburban growth due to its proximity to Washington, D.C.

Other cities like Harrisonburg (home to James Madison University), Staunton, and Culpeper offer small-town charm with vibrant cultural and economic activity.

Whether you’re calling a university in Blacksburg, a tech company in Roanoke, or a small business in the Shenandoah Valley, a 540 number connects you to the heart of western Virginia’s heritage, growth, and natural beauty.

Area code 571 is located in Northern Virginia and serves the same region as area code 703, including major cities and suburbs such as Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax, McLean, Reston, Vienna, Herndon, and parts of Falls Church. Introduced in 2000 as an overlay, 571 was created to meet the growing demand for numbers in one of the fastest-growing regions in the U.S.—Washington, D.C.’s Virginia suburbs.

Because 571 and 703 cover the same area, 10-digit dialing is required for all local calls.

The 571 area code represents the epicenter of Virginia’s economic and technological power. It serves a region known for its federal agencies, tech companies, defense contractors, startups, and global businesses. Cities like Arlington and Tysons are packed with corporate headquarters, while Reston and Herndon are part of the Dulles Technology Corridor—one of the most internet-connected hubs in the world.

With close proximity to the Pentagon, Capitol Hill, and national data centers, a 571 number is synonymous with professionalism, innovation, and influence.
Whether you’re calling a law firm in Alexandria, a government agency in Arlington, or a tech company in Reston, a 571 number connects you to the pulse of Northern Virginia’s business, politics, and progress.

Area code 703 is located in Northern Virginia, serving the Washington, D.C. metro area suburbs, including cities like Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax, McLean, Falls Church, Reston, and Tysons Corner. As one of the original area codes established in 1947, 703 has long been associated with federal agencies, defense contractors, and the political heartbeat of the nation.

Due to explosive population and business growth, area code 571 was introduced as an overlay in 2000, covering the exact same region. As a result, both 703 and 571 require 10-digit dialing for all local calls.

The 703 area is home to some of the most powerful and high-tech corridors in the country. Tysons is a booming commercial center with Fortune 500 companies, Reston and Herndon are part of the Dulles Technology Corridor, and Arlington houses the Pentagon and numerous government offices.

Area code 757 location: Where is it, and what cities does it cover?
Area code 757 is located in southeastern Virginia, serving the Hampton Roads region, including major cities like Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Newport News, Hampton, Portsmouth, Suffolk, and Williamsburg.

Home to one of the largest concentrations of military facilities in the world, the 757 area includes Naval Station Norfolk (the world’s largest naval base), Langley Air Force Base, Joint Base Langley-Eustis, and several shipyards and defense contractors. It’s a hub for aerospace, shipping, naval engineering, and defense technology.
The region is also rich in history and tourism. Williamsburg, Jamestown, and Yorktown form Virginia’s Historic Triangle, attracting millions of visitors each year. Meanwhile, Virginia Beach offers a vibrant boardwalk, beach resorts, and a growing tech and business scene.

Whether you’re calling a defense contractor in Norfolk, a beachfront hotel in Virginia Beach, or a university in Hampton, a 757 number connects you to the economic and cultural engine of southeastern Virginia.

As of 2022, area code 948 was introduced as an overlay to 757 to meet growing demand, so 10-digit dialing is now required. The 757/948 region borders area code 804 to the northwest and touches 252 in northeastern North Carolina.

Area code 804 location: Where is it, and what cities does it serve?
Area code 804 is located in east-central Virginia, covering the Richmond metropolitan area and surrounding cities such as Henrico, Chesterfield, Petersburg, Mechanicsville, Hopewell, Ashland, and Colonial Heights. Introduced in 1973 as a split from the original 703 area code, 804 is the go-to area code for Virginia’s capital region.

The 804 area code is anchored by Richmond, a city steeped in American history and now thriving as a hub for finance, government, healthcare, education, and a growing startup and arts scene. With historic neighborhoods, a revitalized downtown, and the scenic James River running through it, Richmond blends tradition and modern energy.

Surrounding areas like Henrico County and Chesterfield are some of the fastest-growing in the state, while cities like Petersburg and Hopewell add to the region’s industrial, military, and historical significance.

Whether you’re calling a business in downtown Richmond, a medical center in Mechanicsville, or a university campus in Ashland, a 804 number connects you to the heart of Virginia’s government, commerce, and culture.

Area code 804 borders 434 to the southwest, 757/948 to the southeast, and 540 to the northwest—making it a central hub for statewide connectivity.

Area code 826 location: Where is it, and does it overlap with 540?
Area code 826 is located in western and north-central Virginia and serves as an overlay for area code 540—covering the same geographic region. It was officially introduced in June 2022 to accommodate the growing demand for new phone numbers in the area.

The 540/826 region spans a diverse mix of landscapes and communities, anchored by cities like Roanoke, Harrisonburg, Blacksburg, Winchester, Fredericksburg, Staunton, and Salem. It spans areas such as the Shenandoah Valley, Blue Ridge Mountains, and the New River Valley—home to institutions like Virginia Tech and a growing blend of tech, education, and tourism economies.

Because 826 is an overlay, existing 540 numbers remain unchanged, but 10‑digit dialing (area code + local number) became mandatory for all local calls starting May 14, 2022, ensuring seamless connectivity across both area codes.

Whether you’re calling a university in Blacksburg, a tech company in Roanoke, or a historic site in Winchester, an 826 number places you at the intersection of Virginia’s academic, cultural, and natural landscapes.

Area code 948 is located in southeastern Virginia and serves the same region as area code 757, including the vibrant Hampton Roads area—home to cities like Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Newport News, Hampton, Portsmouth, Suffolk, and Williamsburg. Introduced in May 2022, 948 was established as an overlay to meet the growing demand for new phone numbers in this fast-growing region.

Because 948 is an overlay, it does not replace 757, but instead adds additional numbering options. As a result, 10-digit dialing is now required for all local calls within the region.

The 948/757 area is one of Virginia’s most dynamic, blending military power, tourism, history, education, and coastal living. It includes Naval Station Norfolk—the largest naval base in the world—as well as Langley Air Force Base, Joint Base Langley-Eustis, and countless defense contractors and shipbuilders. The region is also rich in American history, with destinations like Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown, and Yorktown attracting millions of visitors annually.
