Area code 802 is one of the original area codes established in the United States in 1947. The 802 area code covers the entire state of Vermont.The area code was created to provide numbering relief to the 415 area code in California.

Time Zones With Area Code 802

As someone who has lived in Vermont for most of my life, I've become pretty familiar with the time zone that covers the Green Mountain State. But what I didn't know until recently is that there is an area code within that time zone that is unique to Vermont.802 is the area code for the entire state of Vermont. And while there are other area codes in other parts of the country that share a time zone with 802, they are not the same as 802. That's because, while other area codes in other time zones may share the same time zone designation, they may not necessarily observe the same daylight saving time rules as 802.

802 is the only area code in the country that observes daylight saving time the way it does. And that's because Vermont is the only state in the country that lies completely within the Eastern Time Zone.

While it's true that other states that are in the Eastern Time Zone observe daylight saving time, they don't do so in the same way that Vermont does. For example, New York and Pennsylvania both observe daylight saving time, but they do so by adjusting their time zone boundaries.

So, if you're ever in Vermont and need to use the phone, be sure to use the area code 802. And if you're ever in a state that observes daylight saving time in a way that's different from Vermont, be sure to adjust your time accordingly.
