ST CHARLES prefixes in area code 331

NANPA records 18 assigned NXX blocks to rate center ST CHARLES in area code 331, 8.0% of the 224 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. 7 holders hold those blocks, the largest being NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - IL (7), CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - IL (5), ONVOY, LLC (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2008-10-28 and the most recent 2026-08-14. 18 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 270, 276, 507, 630 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
