EDINBURG prefixes in area code 956
NANPA records 53 assigned NXX blocks to rate center EDINBURG in area code 956, 7.2% of the 735 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. 14 holders hold those blocks, the largest being SOUTHWESTERN BELL (16), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - IL (12), STPCS JOINT VENTURE, LLC (6). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-04-12 and the most recent 2026-04-28. 37 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 217, 540, 701, 826 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
