The 618 area code was created in 1951 as a split from the original 618 that once covered all of Illinois. Today, 618 is exclusively tied to Madison County, located near the heart of the region. It covers iconic neighborhoods like:
Granite City – the bustling heart of the area
Edwardsville – the vibrant, diverse community
Collinsville – home to rich culture and history
For generations, 618 has represented local pride, offering the best of county life with fast access to all key areas.
The 618 area code operates in the Central Time Zone (CT)–the same time zone as Madison County. 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 618 number means you’re aligned with Central Standard Time (CST) in winter and Central Daylight Time (CDT) in summer.
The 618 area code covers all of Madison County, including:
Granite City
Edwardsville
Collinsville
and many more.
Getting a 618 number gives your calls a familiar, local presence in one of Illinois’s busiest urban regions. It’s perfect for real estate agents, freelancers, remote workers, and anyone who wants to appear local while staying flexible.
