Area code 330

Area code 330 serves Ohio, including Akron, Youngstown and Canton (Eastern time). It has been in service since March 9, 1996 and shares its area with 234.

Numbers starting with 330 drew 2,056 reports to the FTC from Aug 14, 2026 to Nov 11, 2026 and 741 complaints to the FCC since November 2023. The number on your screen can be faked, so a 330 number proves nothing about where a call came from.

Phone companies holding 330 exchanges

Each exchange (the three digits after the area code) is assigned to one carrier. 58% of these exchanges are pooled: their numbers are handed out in blocks of 1,000 to other carriers, so the holder below is not always the company serving a given number.
