Area code 385 is an overlay for area code 801, serving northern Utah, including Salt Lake City, Ogden, and Provo. Introduced in 2008, 385 was implemented to meet increasing demand in one of the fastest-growing regions in the U.S. The area includes Utah’s economic, governmental, and religious centers, with a strong tech industry known as Silicon Slopes. Ten-digit dialing is required throughout the region. Area code 385, while newer, has become an integral part of Utah’s modern identity, symbolizing innovation, population growth, and the evolving landscape of the greater Salt Lake metropolitan area.
