Some background on Nebraska and its area codes

Nebraska's telecommunications framework includes four primary area codes: 308, 402, 531, and 983. Area code 402, established in 1947, originally covered the entire state. Over time, increasing demand for phone numbers necessitated changes, leading to the introduction of additional area codes to maintain efficient communication networks.

Area code 308 was introduced in 1954 to serve western Nebraska, effectively splitting the state into two distinct dialing regions. The eastern portion retained the 402 code. In 2011, area code 531 was implemented as an overlay for the 402 region, addressing the need for more numbers without altering existing ones.

The latest addition, area code 983, was introduced in 2023, also as an overlay for the 402/531 region. This development reflects ongoing growth in telecommunications needs due to population growth and technological advancements. Nebraska's area code history exemplifies the adaptive measures taken to accommodate rising demand while preserving efficient communication.
