History of the 702 Area Code

The 702 area code was created in 1947 as one of the original area codes established by the North American Numbering Plan. Initially, it covered the entire state of Nevada. However, due to the rapid growth in population and telephone usage, the area code underwent significant changes:

  • In 1998, area code 702 was split to create area code 775, which now serves the northern part of Nevada.
  • In 2014, area code 725 was introduced as an overlay to accommodate the increasing demand for new numbers in the Las Vegas area.

These changes were managed by the North American Numbering Plan Administrator (NANPA).
