History & Geography of Area Code 201
Area code 201 was one of the original 86 area codes established in October 1947 under the North American Numbering Plan, initially covering the entire state of New Jersey. Today, it serves the densely populated northeastern region, including Hudson and Bergen counties, with Jersey City as its primary hub.
To accommodate growth, area code 551 was overlaid onto 201 in 2001, requiring ten-digit dialing but preserving the historic 201 prefix for businesses and residents alike.
