929 Area Code - Area Codes USA

929 Area Code. The 929 area code is a New York City telephone prefix dialing code that serves all five boroughs: Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, Manhattan, and Staten Island. Introduced in 2011 as an overlay to the existing 718, 347, and 917 codes, it was created to meet the growing demand for phone numbers in the city. The 929 dialing code is used for both mobile and landline services and is now assigned to new numbers for residents, businesses, and VoIP services across NYC. What is Area Code 929? The 929 Area Code belongs to the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) and overlays the same territory as 718 and 347—covering Brooklyn (Kings County), Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island, plus the Marble Hill neighborhood of Manhattan. It complements the city-wide mobile/overlay code 917. Where Is Area Code 929 Located? The 929 footprint includes every ZIP code in the outer boroughs of New York City. It stretches from the northern tip of the Bronx down to the southern shore of Staten Island and from the Hudson River across Brooklyn and Queens to the Nassau County line. Area Code 929 Map and Location The Hudson River and Upper New York Bay form the western boundary; the East River and Jamaica Bay mark the eastern edge. Manhattan proper is excluded except for Marble Hill, whose copper and fiber lines are wired through the Bronx. The 929 area code map with all New York, Brooklyn, Bronx and Staten Island locations. Current Coverage of the 929 Area Code Any landline, wireless, VoIP, or IoT device activated in the outer boroughs since April 16 2011 may receive a 929 prefix. Ten-digit dialing (or 1 + 10 digits) is mandatory for all local calls.

Delivery Text Scams – Messages claiming to be from USPS, FedEx, or Amazon with fake tracking links, often asking you to “reschedule a missed delivery.” These often spoof 929 numbers to look local. Banking Fraud Alerts – Fake calls or texts pretending to be from Chase, Bank of America, or Citibank warning of “unauthorized Zelle transfers” or blocked transactions. Social Security and IRS Impersonation – Robocalls using threatening language, claiming your SSN has been compromised or that you owe back taxes, often with a spoofed 929 number. Student Loan Forgiveness Scams – Calls promising immediate loan relief through federal programs, often asking for upfront payment or sensitive student data.

Crypto Investment Pitches – Cold calls or texts from spoofed 929 numbers offering “guaranteed returns” through Bitcoin or Ethereum trading platforms.

Fake Tech Support Calls – Calls claiming to be from Microsoft, Apple, or Norton saying your device has been hacked and requesting remote access or payment for “security cleanup.” Phishing Texts with Payment Links – Messages urging you to verify suspicious PayPal, Cash App, or Venmo activity with a link to a fake login page. Romance and Sextortion Scams – Flirty texts from spoofed 929 numbers that quickly escalate into emotional manipulation or extortion attempts after exchanging photos or messages. Pop-Culture Significance of the 929 Area Code While 718 remains the most storied outer-borough code, 929 has become a badge for post-2010 start-ups, indie musicians, and TikTok creators from Brooklyn and Queens. Merch lines and podcasts often brand themselves with “Nine-Two-Nine” to signal a fresh NYC identity. How do I Get a Number in the 929 Area Code Today? Most wireless, VoIP, and SIP-trunk providers can issue a 929 number instantly. Virtual-phone apps (e.g., Google Voice, Dialpad, Grasshopper) list 929 in their standard inventory. For vanity numbers, use a broker that can port an existing 718/347/917 line into the 929 NPA. Future Outlook for Area Code 929.

Frequently asked questions about the 929 area code: Where is the 929 area code located? The 929 area code is located in New York City’s four outer boroughs—Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island—as well as the Marble Hill neighborhood of Manhattan. It covers every ZIP code in those boroughs and shares the same geographic footprint as the older 718 and 347 overlays. Because it is an overlay, 929 numbers can appear anywhere within that territory without reflecting a specific street address. Is the 929 area code a cell phone in the USA? The 929 area code is not limited to cell phones; it is simply an overlay code within the North American Numbering Plan. A 929 number can be assigned to a wireless handset, a traditional landline, a VoIP service, or even an Internet-of-Things device. Whether a given 929 number is a “cell phone” depends on the carrier that issued it, not on the area code itself. What area code is 929 in WhatsApp? In WhatsApp, the area code 929 appears exactly the same as it does in standard phone dialing: +1 929 xxx xxxx. WhatsApp relies on the E.164 international format, so the +1 indicates the United States and the following 929 designates a number registered in New York City’s outer boroughs. Users abroad will see “United States” as the country and “New York” as the region when a 929 number messages them. When did the 929 area code start? The 929 area code started service on April 16, 2011, when it was activated as the third overlay for the 718 and 347 region. Its introduction ensured that New York City had millions of additional numbers without forcing existing customers to change their phone lines. Since activation, all local callers have been required to dial ten digits instead of seven. How do I get a 929 number? To get a 929 number, you can ask any major wireless carrier, cable provider, or VoIP service that supports the New York City rate center; most have 929 inventory on request. Business users can also purchase virtual 929 lines from cloud-PBX platforms such as RingCentral, Dialpad, or Google Voice. If you want a customized vanity number (e.g., 929-FLOWERS), specialty brokers can reserve and port the line for a fee. Which country code is 92? Country code +92 belongs to Pakistan, not the United States. It is used for all mobile and landline phones inside Pakistan and for Pakistan-based numbers roaming abroad. The similarity to “929” is coincidental, so dialing +92 will never reach a New York City subscriber. What are the typical 929 area code scams? Typical 929 area code scams include IRS or Social-Security impostor calls that threaten arrest if you do not pay immediately, “Chinese-consulate” robocalls that claim you have an urgent legal matter, and fake delivery-service texts prompting you to click malicious links. Student-loan forgiveness offers and cryptocurrency investment pitches are also increasingly common. Always verify unexpected 929 calls or texts through an official number before sharing personal information. Why am I getting a 929 area code text message? You may be getting a 929 area code text message because a legitimate New York business or friend is contacting you, or because a spammer is spoofing the number to appear local. Mass-texting platforms favor 929 because its inventory is plentiful and relatively inexpensive. If the message includes suspicious links or urgent requests for money, treat it as potential spam and block or report the sender. What are the most famous New York-based area codes? The most famous New York–based area codes are 212 and 917, both of which are highly coveted in pop culture and business circles. 212 is synonymous with Manhattan prestige, while 917 became iconic as the city-wide mobile prefix of the 1990s. Newer codes such as 646, 332, and 929 are gaining recognition but do not yet carry the same cultural weight. Who is calling from 929? Anyone calling from a 929 number could be a city agency, a delivery driver, a telemarketer, or a scammer—the overlay does not reveal caller identity. Because 929 spans millions of numbers, reverse-lookup databases and smartphone spam-filtering apps are the best tools for verifying unfamiliar calls. If the caller refuses to identify themselves or pressures you for money or information, hang up and confirm through an official channel. What area code is 929 on Reddit? On Reddit, the 929 area code frequently appears in forums like r/Scams, r/nyc, and r/AskNYC. Users share experiences about suspicious 929 calls, discuss the cultural shift from 718 to newer codes, and trade tips on blocking robocall numbers. Searching “929 area code” within Reddit will surface multiple threads spanning consumer-protection advice and New York-centric discussions. What city is the 647 area code? The 647 area code serves Toronto, Ontario, Canada, functioning as an overlay with 416 and 437. Despite the numerical similarity, 647 has no connection to the 929 overlay in New York City. Canadian numbers beginning with +1 647 follow the same North American dialing rules but route entirely within Toronto’s telephone network. 929 Area Code – Location map, time zone, and phone lookup A detailed location map and phone lookup for the 929 area code can be found on databases such as on www.areacodesusa.org and the NANPA administrator’s site. These resources allow you to enter any 929 number to see its carrier, line type (wireless or landline), and approximate neighborhood. They also confirm that 929 follows Eastern Time—five hours behind Coordinated Universal Time in winter and four hours behind in summer. What country is 929 from? The 929 area code is from the United States, specifically New York City. Unlike international country codes, U.S. area codes always follow the national prefix +1. Any phone number written as +1 929 xxx xxxx originates within the five boroughs of New York City, not overseas. What area codes should I avoid answering? You should avoid answering any unfamiliar area code—including 929—if you do not recognize the caller ID. Scammers routinely spoof both local and foreign codes such as 473 (Grenada), 268 (Antigua), and even genuine New York overlays to trick recipients into calling back at premium rates or disclosing personal data. When in doubt, let the call go to voicemail and verify the number independently. Also, be wary of area codes 232, 268, 284, 473, 664, 649, 767, 809, 829, 849, and 876. These are frequently used in fraudulent schemes. Some scammers use caller ID spoofing to make phone numbers appear local, thereby tricking victims into answering. What is the area code for New York? New York City uses multiple area codes: 212, 332, and 646 cover Manhattan; 718, 347, and 929 cover the outer boroughs; and 917 is a city-wide overlay primarily used for mobile lines. Outside the five boroughs, nearby regions have their own prefixes, such as 516 on Long Island and 914 in Westchester County. Always check the full ten-digit number to know exactly which part of the metro area you are reaching.
