Identify Phone Number Location Using Georgia Area Codes

To identify the location of an Georgia 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 Georgia'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 Georgia, making it possible to narrow down the caller's general location.

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

Georgia Phone Numbers

Georgia has approximately 15.1 million active phone numbers. Cell phones account for the majority with 12.7 million users, while traditional landlines are declining with just 503,000 connections statewide. Internet phone services account for about 1.9 million numbers.

This means that when you search a Georgia phone number, it's most likely a cell phone. The shift away from landlines means newer phone numbers are typically harder to trace than older landline numbers that had more public information available.
