Locations for Area Code - 220

Area code 220 is an overlay of 740 and covers southeastern and central Ohio, including cities like Newark, Zanesville, and Lancaster. Introduced in 2015, it supports the growing telecommunications needs of this primarily rural and small-town region. Ten-digit dialing is required throughout the area. While newer and less iconic than 740, 220 represents expanding infrastructure and connectivity in a part of Ohio that balances tradition, agriculture, and quiet suburban growth.
