Area code 916
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
North American area code 916 is an area code based in Sacramento, California. The telephone area code was one of the first three original area codes established in California in October, 1947. It covered the far northern portion of the state. It was split in a flash-cut on October, 26, 1957, at 12PM, when area code 209 was created out of the southern portion. 916 was again split on November 1, 1997, when the northeastern portion became area code 530. At the same time, Dixon moved from 916 to 707. Today, 916 covers only Sacramento and its immediate area.
