Area code 949

California is one of the states that has the highest number of area codes within the state lines. This is due to population and the need for numbers to keep up with new technology like Internet service and mobile phone lines. As phones and contracts get cheaper and better, more and more want to have one, and can afford to have one. Just one of the area codes in the state is the area code 949. This covers the southern part of Orange county, and literally splits a town in two.
Area code 949 was created as a split. It is located in Southern California along the coastal areas, which explains why there are some many different codes in such a small area. This area is heavily populated, as is much of the coast of the state, and that means numbers are in higher demand. Area codes are added as needed to each part of the state, the same as with the rest of the country.
The areas covered by area code 949 include many cities you may have heard of before now. They include Laguna Beach, Lake Forest, Santa Ana, San Clemente, Tustin and Tustin Foothills, Costa Mesa, and Newport Beach. Costa Mesa is different from other cities as it is split down Newport Blvd and Wilson Street, with 949 going down one side of the Blvd, and the area code 714 going down the other.
Not only does area code 949 cover some of Orange county, it also covers some of San Diego county, though only a very small portion of it. The areas in San Diego county include San Onofre State Park, and Camp Pendleton - a Marine Corps base. The area codes surrounding those covered by 949 include the codes 714 to the north, 951 to the east, and 760 to the south and east.
If you find a number on your caller ID from the
area code 949, and you aren´t sure who it is, you can always look around online to see if you can find out more about it. You can be sure it comes from the areas mentioned above, but that may not be all the data that you need. You can find reverse lookup services that use both the yellow and white pages, or you can find some that will give you more information on any mobile number. Use those to see what comes up in your search.
