Geographic Regions and Area Codes

Area code 753 is a relatively new addition to the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) and serves the southeastern region of Ontario, Canada. This area code encompasses major cities such as Ottawa, Kingston, and Cornwall, as well as numerous smaller towns and rural communities. The region is known for its diverse population and thriving economy, which has necessitated the introduction of the new area code to meet the increasing demand for phone numbers.

Here are the major regions covered by area code 753:

  • Ottawa - The capital city of Canada, known for its political significance and vibrant culture.
  • Kingston - A historic city with a strong educational and military presence.
  • Cornwall - A smaller city known for its industrial and manufacturing sectors.

Area code 753 is an overlay for the existing area codes 613 and 343, ensuring that new phone numbers can be assigned with either the 753 or 613 area code, depending on availability.
