Historical Information About Area Code 515

Are you looking for some interesting information about area code 515? If so, you have come to the right place. In this blog post, we will provide you with some historical information about this area code.Area code 515 was first assigned to eastern Iowa in 1947. At the time, there were only three central offices in the area code: Des Moines, Ames, and Cedar Rapids. In the early days, calls within the 515 area code were handled by human operators.

In 1951, the first mechanical telephone switch was installed in Des Moines. This switch was capable of handling 10,000 calls at a time. Shortly thereafter, the 515 area code began to expand rapidly. By 1955, it had reached its current size of 15,000 square miles.

In the 1960s, the 515 area code experienced another major expansion. This time, the area code expanded to include most of north-central Iowa. This included the cities of Mason City, Fort Dodge, and Sioux City.

In the 1980s, the 515 area code began to experience some problems. This was due to the fact that it was one of the smallest area codes in the country. To address this issue, the 515 area code was split in 1991. The western portion of the area code retained the 515 area code, while the eastern portion was assigned the new area code 641.

Today, the 515 area code is still in use. It covers the eastern portion of Iowa, including the cities of Des Moines, Ames, and Cedar Rapids.
