Area Code 445 Location

Area code 445 serves the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania region as an overlay to 215 and 267, adding more phone numbers without changing boundaries. It covers the City of Philadelphia and nearby suburbs in Bucks County and parts of Montgomery County in the Delaware Valley. Because 445 is an overlay, 10‑digit dialing is required for local calls across the region. The area follows the Eastern Time Zone (ET).

Major communities in the 445/215/267 numbering area include:

• Philadelphia
• Bensalem, Levittown, Bristol, and Langhorne (Bucks County)
• Abington, Jenkintown, Willow Grove, Warminster, Hatboro, and Feasterville‑Trevose (Montgomery/Bucks)

Key landmarks served by these area codes:

• Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell
• Philadelphia Museum of Art and the “Rocky Steps”
• Lincoln Financial Field, Citizens Bank Park, and the Wells Fargo Center
• University City (home to the University of Pennsylvania and Drexel University)
• Fairmount Park and the Benjamin Franklin Parkway

Introduced in 2018, 445 was added to relieve number demand while keeping existing 215 and 267 numbers unchanged. The overlay ensures that residents and businesses across Philadelphia and nearby suburbs can get new phone numbers without a geographic split. Fun regional context: 215 is one of the original area codes from 1947, and today 445 simply expands that long history of Philadelphia phone service. If you receive or place a call with a 445 number, it’s assigned to this greater Philadelphia service area.
