Next, let’s look at why you might need a 818 ir 747 area code.

Where is area code 818 and 747?

The 818 and 747 are California area code that covers the San Fernando Valley region of Los Angeles County. The cities and communities within this area code include:

  • Burbank
  • Glendale
  • North Hollywood
  • Sherman Oaks
  • Studio City
  • Tarzana
  • Van Nuys
  • Woodland Hills,
  • and so on..

The 818 area code was introduced in 1984, and the 747 area code was added in 2009 to handle increasing demand for telephone numbers. As more people needed phone numbers, the California Public Utilities Commission added area code 747 to serve the same area as area code 818. Now, new phone numbers can have either area code. Both area codes are located in the Pacific Time Zone.
