The 942 area code was created in 1951 as a split from the original 212 that once covered all of Ontario. Today, 942 is exclusively tied to cities in Ontario, covering iconic neighborhoods like:
Kitchener – a vibrant city known for its innovation
Guelph – home to beautiful parks and a diverse community
Cambridge – rich in history and culture
For generations, 942 has represented Ontario pride, offering the best of city life with fast access to all regions.
The 942 area code operates in the Eastern Time Zone (ET)–the same time zone as Ontario. 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 942 number means you’re aligned with Eastern Standard Time (EST) in winter and Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) in summer.
The 942 area code covers various cities in Ontario, including:
Kitchener
Guelph
Cambridge
and many more.
Getting a 942 number gives your calls a familiar, local presence in one of Ontario’s bustling urban regions. It’s perfect for real estate agents, freelancers, remote workers, and anyone who wants to appear local while staying flexible.
