Lometa, TX — rate center
Phone numbers "from Lometa" are, precisely speaking, numbers whose prefixes are anchored to the Lometa rate center of Texas, under 512, 737.
NANPA records show 5 active prefixes here across 3 carriers. 3 prefixes participate in thousands-block pooling, so blocks of 1,000 numbers are shared between carriers.
Routing-wise it sits in LATA 558.
Multiple area codes over one rate center (512/737) is the overlay pattern: same geography, different first three digits.
With only 5 prefixes, Lometa sits at the small end of Texas's rate centers — a handful of carrier blocks cover the whole locality, and a number from here is a fairly strong locality signal (before porting is considered).
As always with US numbering: a prefix anchored to Lometa tells you where the block was issued. The person calling may have ported the number, moved away, or be spoofing it entirely — verify callers through independently found contact details.
