TACOMAWVLY prefixes in area code 253

NANPA records 51 assigned NXX blocks to rate center TACOMAWVLY in area code 253, 10.0% 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. 13 holders hold those blocks, the largest being T-MOBILE USA, INC. (12), QWEST CORPORATION (12), ELECTRIC LIGHTWAVE LLC DBA ALLSTREAM (5). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-02-28 and the most recent 2026-03-20. 41 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
