Why Metro Baltimore Has 6 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 Baltimore now uses 227, 240, 301, 410, 443 and 667: same neighborhoods, ten-digit dialing, and every one of them covered by its own guide above.

How Maryland Got Its Codes

Every Maryland 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.
