Area code 724

Area code 724 serves Pennsylvania, including Greensburg, Washington and Uniontown (Eastern time). It has been in service since February 1, 1998 and shares its area with 878.

Numbers starting with 724 drew 2,170 reports to the FTC from Aug 14, 2026 to Nov 11, 2026 and 514 complaints to the FCC since November 2023. The number on your screen can be faked, so a 724 number proves nothing about where a call came from.

Phone companies holding 724 exchanges
