PEABODY prefixes in area code 978
NANPA records 30 assigned NXX blocks to rate center PEABODY in area code 978, 3.9% of the 773 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. 9 holders hold those blocks, the largest being VERIZON NEW ENGLAND INC. (8), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - DC (7), PAETEC ITEL, LLC (4). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-02-22 and the most recent 2018-02-07. 24 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 351, 508, 620 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
