What is the 917 area code?

The 917 area code was introduced in 1992 as New York City's first overlay code, covering all five boroughs — Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. Originally assigned primarily to cell phones and pagers, 917 became the quintessential NYC mobile number. Today it's used for both mobile and landline service and is one of the most universally recognized New York City identifiers. For businesses, a 917 number says New York City without being tied to a specific borough.
