Area code 314 – Missouri
314 is one of the original area codes, in service across Missouri since 1947. All but a handful of its 786 number blocks are allocated (783 of 786), so it is effectively exhausted. AT&T is the largest holder with 49.7% of blocks, ahead of Verizon at 13.3%. It shares its geography with overlay codes 557, so local calls take all ten digits. It is also among the most imitated codes in spam calls: 1,251 FTC complaints named a 314 caller ID in the 33 days to 30 October 2026, ranking 16th of 422 ranked codes.

Frequently asked about 314
What state is area code 314?
Missouri. It covers the same area as 314/557.
Can I still get a 314 number?
Only from recycled stock. 783 of the 786 available blocks are already allocated, so new numbers in the area normally come from the overlay codes (314/557).
Is a call from 314 a scam?
314 is one of the most complained-about codes in the country – 1,251 FTC complaints in the 33 days to 30 October 2026, 16th of 422 ranked codes. Most of those calls are spoofed: the caller fakes a local-looking number because it gets answered more often. Look up the specific number rather than judging by the code.
Which carrier owns 314 numbers?
AT&T holds the largest share of assigned number blocks at 49.7%. The rest is spread across 3 other carriers. This is share of number blocks, not of subscribers – people keep their numbers when they switch carriers.
Do I need to dial 10 digits in 314?
Yes – ten digits for local calls in 314, because it shares its area with another code.
