CALDWELL prefixes in area code 979

NANPA records 6 assigned NXX blocks to rate center CALDWELL in area code 979, 1.5% of the 413 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. 5 holders hold those blocks, the largest being NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - IL (2), TEXAS COMMUNICATIONS, INC. (1), LEVEL 3 COMMUNICATIONS, LLC - TX (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2002-07-16 and the most recent 2022-11-16. 4 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 201, 208, 620, 740 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
