The 219 area code was created in 1951 as a split from the original 212 that once covered all of New York. Today, 219 is exclusively tied to Northwest Indiana, covering iconic neighborhoods like:
Valparaiso – a vibrant community with a charming downtown
Hammond – known for its rich history and entertainment options
Crown Point – a city with a mix of suburban feel and historical landmarks
For generations, 219 has represented local pride, offering the best of city and rural life with fast access to Lake Michigan.
The 219 area code operates in the Central Time Zone (CT)–the same time zone as Northwest Indiana. This is important for businesses and professionals who need to stay in sync with local clients, suppliers, and partners. Whether you’re scheduling calls, running local ads, or managing customer support, having a 219 number means you’re aligned with Central Standard Time (CST) in winter and Central Daylight Time (CDT) in summer.
The 219 area code covers all of Northwest Indiana, including:
Valparaiso
Hammond
Crown Point
and many more.
