Area Code 781

Area code 781 was created in 1997 when area code 617 split because of the population spurt.  Story behind the scene is not only the population spurt. However demand for new phone numbers makes it obligatory to reduce the geographical boundaries of densely populated areas. Areas are split into further smaller areas and are assigned with different codes -- so that telephone services can be offered more efficiently and resourcefully.

Unique codes are allocated to areas so that to uniquely identify the areas. It became clear after a few years that the area code 781 of the country would need a new area code soon, and the 351 was born.  Area 351 was added as an overlay to code 781. The code 781 and its overlay code 351 completely surround area 617/857.
