ESCONDIDO prefixes in area code 442
NANPA records 22 assigned NXX blocks to rate center ESCONDIDO in area code 442, 6.2% of the 356 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. 10 holders hold those blocks, the largest being NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC (7), FRACTEL, LLC (4), METROPCS, INC. (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2011-12-30 and the most recent 2022-06-29. 22 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 code 760 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
