916 Area Code Details

916 Area Code: A Piece of Sacramento History

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.

Areas Served by the 916 Code

The 916 area code covers all of Sacramento County, including:

Sacramento

Roseville

Citrus Heights

and many more.
