HUMBLE prefixes in area code 281
NANPA records 24 assigned NXX blocks to rate center HUMBLE in area code 281, 3.1% of the 786 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. 6 holders hold those blocks, the largest being BRIGHTSPEED OF TEXAS, INC. (16), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - IL (3), LEVEL 3 OF TELECOM OF TEXAS, LLC - TX (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2006-08-18 and the most recent 2017-11-02. 13 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 346, 832 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
