The 949 area code was created in 1998 as a split from the original 714 area code. Today, 949 is exclusively tied to Orange County, covering iconic neighborhoods like:
Irvine – a thriving city known for its educational institutions
Laguna Niguel – a picturesque coastal city with stunning views
Mission Viejo – a beautiful planned community
For generations, 949 has represented Orange County pride, offering the best of Southern California life with fast access to all local amenities.
The 949 area code operates in the Pacific Time Zone (PT)–the same time zone as Orange 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 949 number means you’re aligned with Pacific Standard Time (PST) in winter and Pacific Daylight Time (PDT) in summer.
The 949 area code covers all of Orange County, including:
Irvine
Laguna Niguel
Mission Viejo
and many more.
Getting a 949 number gives your calls a familiar, local presence in one of Orange County’s busiest urban regions. It’s perfect for real estate agents, freelancers, remote workers, and anyone who wants to appear local while staying flexible.
