LAFAYETTE prefixes in area code 334
NANPA records 9 assigned NXX blocks to rate center LAFAYETTE in area code 334, 1.1% of the 784 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. 7 holders hold those blocks, the largest being CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - AL (3), LEVEL 3 COMMUNICATIONS, LLC - AL (1), SOUTHERN COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC. (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2002-05-17 and the most recent 2007-10-15. 9 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 315, 337, 419, 507 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
