NEWTON prefixes in area code 857
NANPA records 18 assigned NXX blocks to rate center NEWTON in area code 857, 5.0% of the 361 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. 11 holders hold those blocks, the largest being CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - MA (4), ONVOY, LLC - MA (3), PAETEC ITEL, LLC (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-04-23 and the most recent 2024-11-11. 18 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 229, 304, 316, 334 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
