AUBURN prefixes in area code 253
NANPA records 82 assigned NXX blocks to rate center AUBURN in area code 253, 16.1% of the 508 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. 16 holders hold those blocks, the largest being T-MOBILE USA, INC. (27), CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - WA (13), QWEST CORPORATION (11). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-01-24 and the most recent 2026-01-20. 62 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 217, 260, 270, 272 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
