Telephone area code for southwest Georgia, United States
Area code 229 is a telephone area code in the North American Numbering Plan for the southwest corner of the U.S. state of Georgia. The numbering plan area includes the cities of Albany, Valdosta, Adel, Leesburg, Bainbridge, Americus, Vienna, Fitzgerald, Ocilla, Cairo, Moultrie, Thomasville, McRae-Helena, and Tifton.
The area code was created on August 1, 2000 in a three-way split of area code 912,[1] which had served the southern half of Georgia for forty-six years. Savannah and the eastern portion retained area code 912, while Macon and the northern portion were assigned to area code 478. A one-year permissive dialing period was in effect until August 1, 2001 for ten-digit dialing into the numbering plan area, but several local routes remained available with seven-digit dialing.[2]
Projections of October 2021 indicated that the area code is not expected to need relief until 2029.[3]
