BRIGHTON prefixes in area code 617
NANPA records 22 assigned NXX blocks to rate center BRIGHTON in area code 617, 2.9% of the 768 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 VERIZON NEW ENGLAND INC. (9), MCIMETRO ACCESS TRANSMISSION SERVICES LLC (3), PAETEC ITEL, LLC (2). 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 319, 618, 810, 857 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
