The 701 area code was created in 1951 as a split from the original 701 that once covered all of North Dakota. Today, 701 is exclusively tied to North Dakota, covering iconic neighborhoods like:
Bismarck – the bustling heart of the state
Grand Forks – the vibrant, diverse metropolis
Minot – home to rich culture and history
For generations, 701 has represented North Dakota pride, offering the best of state life with fast access to all areas.
The 701 area code operates in the Central Time Zone (CT)–the same time zone as North Dakota. 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 701 number means you’re aligned with Central Standard Time (CST) in winter and Central Daylight Time (CDT) in summer.
The 701 area code covers all of North Dakota, including:
Bismarck
Grand Forks
Minot
and many more.
Getting a 701 number gives your calls a familiar, local presence in one of North Dakota’s busiest regions. It’s perfect for real estate agents, freelancers, remote workers, and anyone who wants to appear local while staying flexible.
