By numbering footprint the leading localities are Columbia, Jefferson City, Cape Girardeau, Farmington, Poplar Bluff, Rolla, Lake Ozark Osage Beach and Hannibal, and 207 smaller communities down to single-prefix localities. Prefix counts track lines in service, so the ranking is a reasonable proxy for where the code's subscribers actually are.
28 of the localities fall within FCC top-100 metropolitan statistical areas; the rest are smaller communities.
18 of these localities are also reachable through other area codes — overlay territory where the same place answers to several codes.
All of the code's territory keeps Central time.
Remember that people keep numbers when they relocate, so a 573 number is a where-it-was-issued fact, not a where-they-are fact.
