Area code 775

Area code 775 serves Nevada, including Reno, Carson City and Pahrump (PT, only, for, W, Wendover time). It has been in service since December 12, 1998.

Numbers starting with 775 drew 2,961 reports to the FTC from Aug 14, 2026 to Nov 11, 2026 and 917 complaints to the FCC since November 2023. The number on your screen can be faked, so a 775 number proves nothing about where a call came from.

Phone companies holding 775 exchanges

Each exchange (the three digits after the area code) is assigned to one carrier. 59% 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.
