817 Area Code Details

817 Area Code: A Piece of Texas History

The 817 area code was created as a split from the original 817 that once covered a large region including Fort Worth. Today, 817 is exclusively tied to Tarrant County, Texas. It covers iconic neighborhoods like:

Fort Worth – the bustling heart of the area

Arlington – home to entertainment and sports

Grapevine – known for its historical charm and wineries

For generations, 817 has represented Texas pride, offering the best of suburban life with fast access to major urban centers.

The 817 area code operates in the Central Time Zone (CT)–the same time zone as Tarrant 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 817 number means you’re aligned with Central Standard Time (CST) in winter and Central Daylight Time (CDT) in summer.

Areas Served by the 817 Code

The 817 area code covers all of Tarrant County, Texas, including:

Fort Worth

Arlington

Grapevine

and many more.
