The 624 area code was created in 1951 as a split from the original 212 that once covered all of New York. Today, 624 is exclusively tied to New York City, with a focus on Brooklyn, Staten Island, and Queens. For generations, 624 has represented New York pride, offering the best of city life with fast access to all boroughs.
New York is a densely populated state known for its urban landscapes and diverse culture.
The 624 area code operates in the Eastern Time Zone (ET)–the same time zone as New York City. 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 624 number means you’re aligned with Eastern Standard Time (EST) in winter and Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) in summer.
The 624 area code covers all of New York City, including:
Brooklyn
Staten Island
Queens
and many more.
Getting a 624 number gives your calls a familiar, local presence in one of New York’s busiest urban regions. It’s perfect for real estate agents, freelancers, remote workers, and anyone who wants to appear local while staying flexible.
