Area code 913

Area code 913 serves Kansas, including Kansas City, Olathe and Leavenworth (Central time). It has been in service since January 1, 1947.

Phone companies holding 913 exchanges

Each exchange (the three digits after the area code) is assigned to one carrier. 77% 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.
