Next, let’s look at why you might need a 408 area code.

Where is area code 408?

Area code 408 is located in the state of California. The 408 area code includes most of San Jose, some of Santa Clara County, and a few areas around the Silicon Valley region in California. Some of the major cities and communities served by the 408 area code include:

  • San Jose
  • Santa Clara
  • Cupertino
  • Sunnyvale
  • Morgan Hill
  • Gilroy
  • Los Gatos
  • Campbell

Area code 408 was created in 1959 to cover a large region in California, but now only serves Silicon Valley. In 2012, the 669 area code was introduced and this was because the population grew and more area codes were needed. Neighboring area codes include 831, 650, 415, 510, and 925.
