History of Area Code 413
Area code 413 was established in 1947 as one of the 86 original area codes in the North American Numbering Plan. It was assigned to western Massachusetts at the plan's launch, so it was not created by splitting a preexisting Massachusetts area code.
Area code 508 was created from area code 617 in 1988, and area code 978 was created from area code 508 in 1997. Those changes addressed growing telephone demand in other parts of Massachusetts. Area code 413 has not undergone a geographic split or received an area code overlay.
