The 249 area code was created as a split from the original 249 that once covered all of Ontario. Today, 249 is exclusively tied to Ontario, covering iconic neighborhoods like:
Toronto – the bustling heart of the province
Ottawa – the vibrant, diverse capital city
Mississauga – known for its diverse population and urban life
Brampton – a rapidly growing city in the Greater Toronto Area
Hamilton – rich in culture and history
For generations, 249 has represented Ontario pride, offering the best of provincial life with fast access to all regions.
The 249 area code operates in the Eastern Time Zone (ET) – the same time zone as Ontario. 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 249 number means you’re aligned with Eastern Standard Time (EST) in winter and Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) in summer.
The 249 area code covers all of Ontario, including:
Toronto
Ottawa
Mississauga
Brampton
Hamilton
and many more.
Getting a 249 number gives your calls a familiar, local presence in one of Ontario’s busiest urban regions. It’s perfect for real estate agents, freelancers, remote workers, and anyone who wants to appear local while staying flexible.
