About this image

North American area code 480 is a state of Arizona telephone area code which was split from Area Code 602 on April 1, 1999, due to the explosive growth of the Phoenix metropolitan area in the 1990s. The west side and the western half of the far north side became Area code 623, while the eastern Suburbs and the Phoenix neighborhood of Ahwatukee became Area Code 480.

The 480 Area Code encompasses Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Tempe, Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, Apache Junction, as well as far northeast Phoenix and the Phoenix neighborhood of Ahwatukee, and newer unincorporated communities in far northwest Pinal County which are becoming part of the Greater Phoenix metropolitan area due to heavy development.
