RIDGECREST prefixes in area code 760
NANPA records 16 assigned NXX blocks to rate center RIDGECREST in area code 760, 2.0% of the 785 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 FRONTIER CALIFORNIA INC. (7), UTILITY TELECOM GROUP, LLC - CA (2), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-05-09 and the most recent 2011-12-27. 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 code 442 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
