Why metro Jonesboro has 2 area codes
When a region uses more numbers than one code can hold, new codes are overlaid on the same territory rather than forcing anyone to change numbers. Metro Jonesboro now uses 327 and 870: same neighborhoods, ten-digit dialing, and every one of them covered by its own guide above.

The largest Arkansas communities and the area codes that serve them. Every city links to its local AT&T internet page.
How Arkansas got its codes
Every Arkansas area code, in the order it entered service. Splits carved new regions; added codes overlay existing ones, which is why ten-digit dialing is standard.
| In service | Code | How it arrived |
|---|---|---|
| 1947 | 501 | One of the original area codes of 1947 |
| 1997 | 870 | Added to the 501 region |
| 2002 | 479 | Split from 501 |
| 2024 | 327 | Added to the 870 region |

Jonesboro runs on 870 and 327, Fayetteville on 479, and Little Rock on 501.
Overlays share one territory
An overlay serves the exact same area as the code it joins: new numbers, same map. Jonesboro carries two (870, 327).
Reading the map
Each color is one code territory. The chip shows the main code with its overlays beneath it, and clicking any region opens that code’s full guide.
