WALKER prefixes in area code 218

NANPA records 3 assigned NXX blocks to rate center WALKER in area code 218, 0.4% of the 708 blocks assigned in the code. A rate center is the billing geography a block is allocated to – NANPA truncates the name to ten characters, so read it as a NANPA label rather than a town. 2 holders hold those blocks, the largest being CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - MN (2), EAST OTTER TAIL TEL. CO. (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2007-02-15 and the most recent 2008-10-23. 2 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots. The same rate center name also appears in area codes 319, 417 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
