STOUGHTON prefixes in area code 608
NANPA records 13 assigned NXX blocks to rate center STOUGHTON in area code 608, 1.7% of the 785 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. 10 holders hold those blocks, the largest being PAETEC ITEL, LLC (2), HD CARRIER LLC (2), WISCONSIN BELL INC (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-02-16 and the most recent 2025-07-14. 12 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 781 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
