NORWOOD prefixes in area code 781
NANPA records 24 assigned NXX blocks to rate center NORWOOD in area code 781, 3.1% of the 769 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. (6), PAETEC ITEL, LLC (4), MCIMETRO ACCESS TRANSMISSION SERVICES LLC (3). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-01-16 and the most recent 2013-11-03. 16 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, 339, 417, 704 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
