The area code 330 is located in Akron, Ohio.
Area code 330 serves northeast Ohio, centered on Akron in Summit County. It was established in 1996 after a split from 216, creating a dedicated code for communities south and east of Cleveland. The 330 service area includes busy downtown districts, major universities, and manufacturing hubs, tying together the Mahoning Valley and the Greater Akron and Canton regions. It’s overlaid by area code 234, so 10-digit dialing is standard for local calls.
Key cities in area code 330 include:
Home to the University of Akron and the Goodyear headquarters, Akron sits near Cuyahoga Valley National Park, a popular destination for trails and scenic drives. In Canton, the Pro Football Hall of Fame stands out as a major landmark. Youngstown anchors the Mahoning Valley and includes Youngstown State University, while Warren and Kent add strong cultural and college-town energy. With multiple mid-sized cities in one region, 330 phone numbers connect a wide mix of neighborhoods, suburbs, and rural communities.
Expect Eastern Time (ET) for all 330 numbers, and remember that new lines may use the 234 overlay but reach the same places. Number portability means a 330 phone number can move with you within the region, which helps businesses and residents keep long-held lines. Fun local trivia: Akron’s legacy as the “Rubber Capital” still shapes its identity, even as tech, healthcare, and education grow. “NANPA: 330 is overlaid by 234.” (Source: North American Numbering Plan Administrator)
