Feature Answer

What is Area Code 781?

Area code 781 is a North American telephone area code assigned to Boston suburbs, covering Lexington, Woburn, Quincy. It was created in 1997 when area code 617 was split to handle growing demand. The code is local rather than toll-free, and it operates on Eastern Time.

Before 1997, Boston suburbs was part of the larger 617 footprint. As the region grew, the FCC carved out 781 to serve its own community, leaving 617 to anchor a more focused area. Today 781 is the recognized code for Boston suburbs, used across local businesses, institutions, and households.
