Area Code 435 Location

Area code 435 serves Cedar City, Utah, and most of the state outside the Salt Lake City–Ogden–Provo Wasatch Front. Centered in southwestern Utah along I‑15, Cedar City uses 435 for local and regional phone numbers and connects to nearby desert, mountain, and canyon towns. The code was created in 1997 as a split from 801 to handle growing demand across rural and scenic parts of the state. It covers a wide footprint that includes college towns, ski resorts, and national park gateways, making 435 one of Utah’s most geographically diverse area codes.

Major cities and landmarks in 435 include:

• Cedar City (home to Southern Utah University and Cedar Breaks National Monument)
• St. George and the Zion National Park gateway
• Logan and Bear Lake region
• Park City and the Wasatch Back
• Moab, Arches National Park, and Canyonlands National Park
• Bryce Canyon and Capitol Reef National Parks
• Vernal and Dinosaur National Monument
• Price and Richfield along central Utah’s corridors

Cedar City sits near red rock country and alpine plateaus, making it a hub for year-round travel within the 435 area code. Locals often call it a gateway to Utah’s “Mighty 5” national parks, with Zion and Bryce Canyon a short drive away, and scenic byways heading toward Capitol Reef, Arches, and Canyonlands. Phone numbers with the 435 area code can also come from northern and eastern Utah, so a 435 call might be from Cedar City, St. George, Logan, Park City, or Moab. This wide reach reflects how 435 links many of Utah’s small cities, university towns, and outdoor destinations into one cohesive calling region.
