Arizona Reverse Phone Lookup

Identify Phone Number Location Using Arizona Area Codes

To identify the location of an Arizona phone number, you need to understand the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) structure that all Alabama numbers follow: +1 NPA NXX XXXX.

+1 - Country code indicating the United States
NPA - The area code reveals the geographic region where the number was originally assigned
NXX - Central office code that locates the specific neighborhood and identifies the service provider
XXXX - Subscriber number identifies the individual phone line within that local exchange

The area code (NPA) is your key to determining location. By matching the three-digit area code to Arizona's regional assignments, you can identify which part of the state the phone number originates from. Each area code corresponds to specific cities and counties throughout Arizona, making it possible to narrow down the caller's general location.

Here's a complete list of Arizona area codes with major cities:

Area Codes	Cities
480/602/623	Phoenix, Mesa, Chandler
520	Tucson, Casas Adobes, Catalina Foothills
928	Yuma, Flagstaff, Lake Havasu City

Important: Area codes can only tell you where a phone number was originally assigned, not where the phone number owner currently lives. Due to number portability and mobile/VoIP services, the actual user location may be completely different today.

Arizona Phone Numbers

Arizona has approximately 9.7 million active phone numbers. Cell phones dominate, with over 8.1 million users. Landlines are declining but still have around 312,000 connections. Internet-based phone services account for roughly 1.2 million numbers.

If you're tracing an Arizona phone number, it is highly likely to be a cell phone. The gradual reduction in landlines suggests that newer phone numbers might be more difficult to trace compared to older landline numbers that were once more accessible in public records.

Other Arizona Phone Number Search Methods

With a population of over 7.5 million people and almost 160,000 businesses, finding the right person in Arizona can sometimes require trying a few different search methods.

Social Media Phone Number Searches

Social media can be helpful to identify an Arizona phone number's owner. If you're meeting someone new and want to verify their phone number legitimacy, or confirming a potential business contact, social media searches can provide valuable clues.

Facebook: You can use Facebook's search bar to enter a phone number and see if it's associated with a public profile. You can also use the Facebook public directory to search for people by name and location, cross-referencing with known phone numbers.
LinkedIn: If the phone number is connected to a professional, LinkedIn can help you verify their identity and role. Arizona's large number of businesses makes LinkedIn a good place to check professional contacts. Use the LinkedIn people directory to search by name, company, and location to find a matching phone number.
