Geographic Regions and Area Codes

Area Code 448 is a relatively new addition to the Florida Panhandle, introduced to address the growing demand for telephone numbers in the region. This area code covers a significant portion of the Panhandle, including 36 cities and 15 counties. Major cities within this area code include Tallahassee, Pensacola, Navarre, Panama City, and Crestview. The region is known for its diverse landscapes, from coastal areas to urban centers. Additionally, Area Code 448 is an overlay for the existing 850 area code, meaning both area codes serve the same geographic region.
