ODESSA prefixes in area code 816

NANPA records 8 assigned NXX blocks to rate center ODESSA in area code 816, 1.0% 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. 6 holders hold those blocks, the largest being EMBARQ MISSOURI, INC. DBA CENTURYLINK - MO (2), CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - MO (2), AERIAL COMMUNICATIONS, INC. (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-05-14 and the most recent 2001-05-14. 7 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 320, 432, 509, 607 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
