LOS ALAMOS prefixes in area code 505

NANPA records 16 assigned NXX blocks to rate center LOS ALAMOS in area code 505, 2.3% of the 685 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 QWEST CORPORATION (7), CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - NM (3), BANDWIDTH.COM CLEC, LLC - NM (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2003-07-30 and the most recent 2024-03-21. 11 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 805, 820 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
