California is one of the most heavily populated states of USA - the coastal areas are more populated. However, population ratio decreases in inland areas because of the rough land conditions.
Land of great California has been divided into number of small and big areas - each division has been assigned with different area code. Big regions are divided into smaller areas to provide telephone facilities to customers the way they want. If a customer needs two phone lines at a time - one for telephone and one for dial up internet then of course, the company has to provide two telephone lines.
As the requirements of telephone lines are increasing with each passing day - it becomes obligatory to divide areas and assign each part with different area code.
Area code 530 has been assigned to certain areas of Greater Sacramento while the remaining areas are using area code 916. Code 916 was created in 1947 while Area code 530 was split from area code 916 on 1st November, 1997. Majority of the areas in Sacramento are using code 530. Pacific Time Zone is used for all these areas.
