Area Code 423 is an area code in Tennessee that covers two separate areas of East Tennessee.
Principal cities in the northern part of the area code region are Bristol, Johnson City and Kingsport (more commonly known as the Tri-Cities). The principal cities in the south are Chattanooga and Cleveland.
History
Area code 423 was created in 1995 when it was split off from Area code 615. Originally it consisted of the eastern third of the state, and area code 615 continued to serve the middle third of the state.
Area code 865 (Knoxville area) was separated off from this area code in 1999.
