Connecticut area codes — detailed data
Full numbering detail for every active Connecticut area code: lineage (which code it split from), NANPA exhaust projections, dialing plans and jeopardy status. This is the working data behind the overview page.
Aggregate footprint: the state's 4 geographic codes currently carry 1,998 active NXX prefixes over 173 rate-center anchorings, with 1,437 prefixes in thousands-block pooling. 4 of the codes serve territory inside FCC top-100 metropolitan statistical areas.
Lineage: 475 came out of 203 in 2009; 860 came out of 203 in 1995; 959 came out of 860 in 2014. The remaining code (203) dates back to the plan's early assignments.
Dialing plans: 4 codes use plain ten-digit local dialing (10D). Overlay territories always dial ten digits; the 2021 988-hotline transition moved most others to ten digits as well.
The tightest capacity in the state is 203 (complex 203/475), projected to exhaust 4Q 2055.
Status: no Connecticut code is currently in jeopardy or active relief planning — capacity is adequate near-term per NANPA.
