Launched in 2015, 930 was added because 812 was running out of available numbers; the overlay kept all existing phone numbers in place while adding new supply. It also brought mandatory ten-digit dialing for local calls across the 812/930 region. The 812 area code dates to 1947, making 930 a notable update to one of Indiana’s original area codes—and Indiana’s first overlay. For residents, students, and businesses in Bloomington, area code 930 simply means more local numbers for a growing community.
