LAKE ORION prefixes in area code 248

NANPA records 8 assigned NXX blocks to rate center LAKE ORION in area code 248, 1.0% of the 784 blocks assigned in the code. A rate center is the billing geography a block is allocated to – NANPA truncates the name to ten characters, so read it as a NANPA label rather than a town. 5 holders hold those blocks, the largest being LEVEL 3 COMMUNICATIONS, LLC - MI (3), MICHIGAN BELL TEL CO (2), MCIMETRO ACCESS TRANSMISSION SERVICES LLC - MI (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-12-28 and the most recent 2001-12-28. 7 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots. The same rate center name also appears in area code 947 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
