Area code 606 covers the eastern half of south-central and the eastern part of Kentucky. It runs along the entire length of the state's borders with Virginia and West Virginia. Most of its service area lies within the Kentucky region known as the Eastern Kentucky Coalfield.
In 1999, area code 859 was created from a split of the 606 area code. The northwestern portion of the old 606 territory, including Lexington and Northern Kentucky, was assigned to area code 859.
Area code 606 is a general purpose code which was placed in service on January 1, 1955.
Our Kentucky phone number lookup service will analyze the three-digit prefix of any 606 area code phone number and will show which telecommunications company and rate center it was initially assigned to. This prefix code data may help to determine the U.S. carrier, Kentucky geographic region, and local calling area associated with the phone number.
Phone numbers follow the following structure under the North American Numbering Plan:
Understanding the area code can help you determine if a call is local to your area. However, keep in mind that due to mobile number portability and VoIP services, the caller may be anywhere in the United States, so it’s best to search for the most recent phone number details.
