About Area Code 602
Area code 602 is a North American Numbering Plan (NANP) area code that has been in service since 1947. It is administered by NANPA on behalf of the FCC and serves the Arizona region anchored on Phoenix.
602 is currently a single-coverage geographic area code with no overlays. This means a 7-digit number in this area code is unique within its rate centers, though best-practice is always to dial the full 10-digit number when contacting a 602 line.
Mobile numbers in 602 are portable: a person who moved away from Phoenix may still carry a 602 mobile number on their device. If you receive an unexpected call from a 602 number, run it through the reverse lookup tool above for the most accurate, free identification.
