Area code 229

Georgia, United States

National (229) 555-0123, E.164 +12295550123

How the 702 central office codes (exchanges) of area code 229 were allocated, from the North American Numbering Plan's records: to which carrier, as which line type. A 229 number is mobile, fixed line or VoIP according to its exchange, the three digits after the area code; the allocation is the original one (below).

Questions developers ask

Where is area code 229?
Area code 229 is in Georgia, in the United States: all 702 of its exchanges on record are there. From abroad it is dialled +1 229, then the seven-digit number.
Is a 229 number mobile or landline?
Either: in the North American Numbering Plan the line type belongs to the exchange (the three digits after the area code), not to the area code. Of the 702 exchanges on record in 229, 274 (39%) were allocated as mobile, 295 (42%) as fixed line, 117 (17%) as VoIP and 16 (2%) have no line type on record. A number can have been ported since, to another carrier and even to another line type.
Which carriers have numbers in area code 229?
40 carriers hold exchanges in 229 on record; the most: AT&T (226), Windstream (91) and Onvoy (74). These are the original allocations: with number portability, a number may be served by another carrier today, which only a live carrier lookup (an HLR or MNP query) can tell.
How do I validate a 229 phone number?
In E.164 a 229 number matches ^\+1229[2-9]\d{6}$: +1, the area code, a central office code that does not start with 0 or 1, then four digits. Written nationally it reads (229) 555-0123. The exchange patterns on this page narrow it to the exchanges allocated as mobile, fixed line or VoIP.
