Area code 575

Area code 575 serves New Mexico, including Las Cruces, Alamogordo and Hobbs (Mountain time). It has been in service since October 7, 2007.

Numbers starting with 575 drew 1,563 reports to the FTC from Aug 14, 2026 to Nov 11, 2026 and 287 complaints to the FCC since November 2023. The number on your screen can be faked, so a 575 number proves nothing about where a call came from.

Phone companies holding 575 exchanges

Each exchange (the three digits after the area code) is assigned to one carrier. 63% 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.
