Area code 582

About area code 582

Area code 582 is a geographic area code in Pennsylvania, in service since May 1, 2021, according to the North American Numbering Plan Administrator (NANPA). It is an overlay: 582 and 814 cover the same territory, so neighbors on the same street can have different area codes. It is in the Eastern time zone. The places with the most assigned exchanges include Reynoldsville, Erie, Altoona, Hollidaysburg, and Johnstown. By population, its largest named places are Erie, Altoona, State College, Fairview, and Johnstown.

Ten-digit and seven-digit dialing in 582

According to NANPA's dialing-plan data, local calls within 582 are dialed as ten digits (area code plus number) and toll calls as ten digits (area code plus number). Because local calls need the area code, business cards, signage and website copy should always show the full ten-digit number. NANPA's dialing-plan note for this code reads: "1+10 digit dialing for all HNPA and FNPA calls permissible at each service provider discretion"

Who holds 582 exchanges

27 carriers hold the 154 central office codes assigned in 582. New Cingular Wireless PCS, LLC - DC has the most, with 20 (13%). 154 of the codes (100%) are pooled, meaning the code holder shares blocks of 1,000 numbers with other carriers instead of using all 10,000 itself. The code holder is not necessarily the carrier serving a given number today, since numbers can be ported between providers.

Local calling areas in 582

NANPA assigns each central office code to a rate center, the local calling area that decides whether a call is local or toll. 582 has codes in 84 rate centers. Rate center names in the file are abbreviations; where one matches a Census place, the table links to that city's local-number page.
