B · Relationships

How it relates to other codes

The codes 941 was split from, spawned, or shares its area with. A split divides the map and changes some numbers; an overlay shares the same ground and changes none — what's the difference?

Split from · 1995 813 Tampa Established May 28, 1995 from 813 (region earlier served by 305).
Spawned · 1999 863 Lakeland 863 split off inland counties.
Spawned · 2002 239 Fort Myers 239 split off Lee and Collier counties (239 article: March 11, 2002; 941 article says "March 2003" — discrepancy).
What's changing. No overlay; single geographic area code. Ten-digit dialing in effect since October 2021.
