Area code 424
California, United States
National (424) 555-0123, E.164 +14245550123
How the 475 central office codes (exchanges) of area code 424 were allocated, from the North American Numbering Plan's records: to which carrier, as which line type. A 424 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 424?
- Area code 424 is in California, in the United States: all 475 of its exchanges on record are there. From abroad it is dialled +1 424, then the seven-digit number.
- Is a 424 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 475 exchanges on record in 424, 177 (37%) were allocated as mobile, 111 (23%) as fixed line, 172 (36%) as VoIP and 15 (3%) 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 424?
- 19 carriers hold exchanges in 424 on record; the most: T-Mobile (97), Onvoy (69) and AT&T (64). 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 424 phone number?
- In E.164 a 424 number matches ^\+1424[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 (424) 555-0123. The exchange patterns on this page narrow it to the exchanges allocated as mobile, fixed line or VoIP.
