279 Area Code Details

279 Area Code: A Piece of California History

The 279 area code was created as a split from the original 212 that once covered all of California. Today, 279 is exclusively tied to California, covering iconic neighborhoods like:

Fresno – the bustling heart of the region

Clovis – the vibrant, diverse community

Visalia – home to rich culture and history

For generations, 279 has represented California pride, offering the best of city life with fast access to all areas.

The 279 area code operates in the Pacific Time Zone (PT)–the same time zone as California. 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 279 number means you’re aligned with Pacific Standard Time (PST) in winter and Pacific Daylight Time (PDT) in summer.

Areas Served by the 279 Code

The 279 area code covers all of California, including:

Fresno

Clovis

Visalia

and many more.
