WORCESTER prefixes in area code 508
NANPA records 75 assigned NXX blocks to rate center WORCESTER in area code 508, 10.0% of the 749 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. 12 holders hold those blocks, the largest being VERIZON NEW ENGLAND INC. (36), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - DC (9), PAETEC ITEL, LLC (7). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-02-14 and the most recent 2025-03-04. 30 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 607, 774 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
