ANGLETON prefixes in area code 979
NANPA records 28 assigned NXX blocks to rate center ANGLETON in area code 979, 6.8% of the 413 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. 11 holders hold those blocks, the largest being AERIAL COMMUNICATIONS, INC. (6), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - IL (6), SOUTHWESTERN BELL (5). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-02-20 and the most recent 2025-05-08. 27 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
