Split Area Code
This area code exists because its parent region ran low on available numbers: the parent territory was divided geographically, this code took over one part of it, and the parent kept serving the rest. Existing customers generally keep their numbers — only the code changes for the newly drawn region.
This area code was split from area code 813 (Tampa).
Its original territory was later further divided: area code 239 (Cape Coral), area code 863 (Lakeland).
In service since: 28-May-1995
