Area code 814 – Pennsylvania
814 is one of the original area codes, in service across Pennsylvania since 1947. All but a handful of its 786 number blocks are allocated (784 of 786), so it is effectively exhausted. Verizon is the largest holder with 35.8% of blocks, ahead of Other CLEC / VoIP at 19.6%. It shares its geography with overlay codes 582, so local calls take all ten digits. FTC complaints naming a 814 caller ID totalled 584 in the 33 days to 30 October 2026 (177th of 422 ranked codes). Numbers are spread across 178 rate centers, which is typical of a mostly rural code.
