Although it’s hard to imagine now, New York City was served by only area code 212 until 1984. In 1984, the 718 area code was introduced to serve Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island. Bronx and Marble Hill were removed from the 212 numbering plan and appended to 718 in 1992. New York City’s first cellular/pager area code, the 917, was introduced in the same year. All cellphone numbers issued until then were migrated to 917 area code.
In 1999, two new area codes, 646 and 347 were introduced to serve Manhattan and the rest of the boroughs respectively. The sixth one (929 area code) came into effect in 2011, generating over 23 million phone numbers. Finally in 2015, the youngest area code, 332, was introduced.
