Cities in area code 605
These are the cities and communities covered by 605 in South Dakota. "Covered" means the locality is a rate center holding 605 prefixes; the largest are Sioux Falls, Rapid City, Aberdeen.
By numbering footprint the leading localities are Sioux Falls, Rapid City, Aberdeen, Spearfish, Watertown, Pierre, Huron and Yankton, and 260 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.
All of the code's territory keeps Central or Mountain time — one of the rare NANP codes straddling a zone boundary, so check the locality before assuming the hour.
Remember that people keep numbers when they relocate, so a 605 number is a where-it-was-issued fact, not a where-they-are fact.
