The 562 area code was created as a split from the original 562 that once covered all of Long Beach. Today, 562 is exclusively tied to Long Beach, located in Southern California. It covers iconic neighborhoods like:
Long Beach – the bustling heart of the city
Lakewood – a vibrant suburban community
Bellflower – a culturally rich area
For generations, 562 has represented California pride, offering the best of city life with fast access to communities.
The 562 area code operates in the Pacific Time Zone (PT)–the same time zone as Long Beach. 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 562 number means you’re aligned with Pacific Standard Time (PST) in winter and Pacific Daylight Time (PDT) in summer.

and many more.
