771 Area Code Details

771 Area Code: A Piece of Washington D.C. History

The 771 area code was created in 1951 as a split from the original 212 that once covered all of New York. Today, 771 is exclusively tied to Washington D.C., located at the heart of the city. It covers iconic neighborhoods like:

Washington – the bustling heart of the city

Georgetown – a historic neighborhood home to shops and waterfront views

Capitol Hill – known for its political significance and vibrant community

For generations, 771 has represented D.C. pride, offering the best of city life with fast access to all districts.

The 771 area code operates in the Eastern Time Zone (ET)–the same time zone as Washington D.C. 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 771 number means you’re aligned with Eastern Standard Time (EST) in winter and Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) in summer.
