SCRANTON prefixes in area code 272
NANPA records 16 assigned NXX blocks to rate center SCRANTON in area code 272, 4.7% of the 337 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. 16 holders hold those blocks, the largest being TELNYX LLC (1), COMCAST IP PHONE, LLC (1), CSC WIRELESS, LLC (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2016-08-16 and the most recent 2026-07-28. 15 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 codes 479, 570, 701, 712 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
