Rome, Georgia Area Code |
|
|
Rome, GA Area Codes are 706 and 762 |
|
|
Rome, GA is currently assigned two area codes 706 and 762. Rome, GA utilizes an area code overlay in which area codes 706
and 762 serve the same geographic area. Ten digit dialing (area code + seven digit number) is necessary in Rome because two different homes in the same geographic area can have the same seven digit phone
number but each would have a different area code. The area code overlay which is in use in Rome, GA today was put into service on May 6, 2006 and covers northern Georgia with a smaller section covering
western central Georgia.
In addition to Rome, GA area codes 706 and 762 serve the major communities of Athens, Augusta, Columbus, Dalton, La Grange, and Martinez.At this time although 762 is assigned
as an overlay of area code 706, it is not widely in use. Columbus GA is actively using the area code overlay. |
