First assigned in 1947 as one of the original 86 area codes in the North American Numbering Plan, 415 is among the oldest and most recognized area codes in the country. It serves the city of San Francisco, all of Marin County, and a small part of San Mateo County, and is a local (non-toll-free) area code in the Pacific Time Zone.

415 originally covered all of Northern California, including the entire Bay Area. Successive area code splits over the decades — 408 (1959), 707 (1959), 510 (1991), 650 (1997) — reduced its territory to just San Francisco and Marin County. Overlay 628 was added in 2015 when 415 numbers were running out. Despite the overlay, a 415 number remains the gold standard for tech startups, venture capital firms, and SF-based businesses.
