    West Virginia area code

    West Virginia became a US state in 1863 and since grown to become an energy powerhouse and key state in US politics. Nearly 2 million people live in West Virginia and use at least one phone number for private or business purposes. You can find an unknown caller’s general location by looking at the area code. However, additional information such as the person’s name and exact address is only available with a reverse phone lookup on the West Virginia phone numbers database. 

    West Virginia started using area codes in 1947 when the telephone companies elected to retire switchboards and use area codes to connect phone number owners instead. This change led to the creation of the ten-digit phone number and the North American Numbering Plan.

    Phone companies also started compiling and listing local residents’ phone numbers on white pages. These phonebooks were useful if you needed to find a person or business on your street or in a small town. With the wider adoption of phone numbers, maintaining white pages became costly and inefficient. So, phone companies stopped publishing these books entirely. 

    Today, hardly would you find a physical white page, but you can still find people with their phone numbers, including unknown callers. How does this work? When a resident purchases a phone number, they are required to provide their personal information and contact details to the mobile carrier. The components of a phone number further make this information further unique to the phone number owner. 

    Consider the typical West Virginia phone number, 304-NXX-XXXX. The first three digits of the phone number, the area code, represent a defined county or city in West Virginia. The next three digits, NXX, the prefix code, specify the specific town or street where the phone number owner resides. Finally, the line number, XXXX, is unique to the specific owner.

    So, if the phone number were to be a house address, the line number would be a specific flat number or house number where one person lives. Many persons can have the same area code and prefix code. However, the line number is unique to a specific individual. No two persons have the same line number. This degree of specificity makes searching the West Virginia phone numbers database accurate. 

    A reverse phone search will typically provide the phone number owner’s personal information, including their full name and contact address. You will also find social media profiles linked to the phone number, as well as publicly available records linked to that person.
