Area code 910 serves southeastern North Carolina, including cities such as Wilmington, Fayetteville, Jacksonville, and Lumberton. Introduced in 1993 as a split from 919, it covers a region that blends coastal tourism, military bases (including Fort Liberty and Camp Lejeune), and rural towns. In 2022, area code 472 was added as an overlay, making ten-digit dialing mandatory. Area code 910 is closely tied to North Carolina’s coastal and military identity, and it remains a widely recognized marker of the southeastern portion of the state.
