Area code 507 serves southern Minnesota, including cities such as Rochester, Mankato, Winona, and Worthington. Established in 1954 from a split with area code 218, it covers a largely rural but economically vital region with strong ties to agriculture, healthcare, and education. Rochester is home to the Mayo Clinic, a world-renowned medical center. Seven-digit dialing is still common in many areas. Area code 507 reflects Minnesota’s heartland values, combining cutting-edge healthcare with small-town charm and strong community roots in the southern part of the state.
