The 916 area code was created in 1947 as a split from the original 916 that once covered a larger region. Today, 916 is exclusively tied to Sacramento County, California, located in the northern part of California's Central Valley, known for its rich agricultural land. It covers iconic neighborhoods like:
Sacramento – the bustling heart of the county
Roseville – a vibrant suburban community
Citrus Heights – a bustling residential area
For generations, 916 has represented Sacramento pride, offering the best of city life with fast access to all surrounding areas.
The 916 area code operates in the Pacific Time Zone (PT)–the same time zone as Sacramento 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 916 number means you’re aligned with Pacific Standard Time (PST) in winter and Pacific Daylight Time (PDT) in summer.
The 916 area code covers all of Sacramento County, including:
Sacramento
Roseville
Citrus Heights
and many more.
Getting a 916 number gives your calls a familiar, local presence in one of California’s vibrant regions. It’s perfect for real estate agents, freelancers, remote workers, and anyone who wants to appear local while staying flexible.
