Area code 754

Area code 754 serves Florida, including Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood and Pompano Beach (Eastern time). It has been in service since August 1, 2001 and shares its area with 954.

Numbers starting with 754 drew 892 reports to the FTC from Aug 14, 2026 to Nov 11, 2026 and 440 complaints to the FCC since November 2023. The number on your screen can be faked, so a 754 number proves nothing about where a call came from.

Phone companies holding 754 exchanges

Each exchange (the three digits after the area code) is assigned to one carrier. 94% 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.
