NORTHRUP prefixes in area code 979
NANPA records 3 assigned NXX blocks to rate center NORTHRUP in area code 979, 0.7% of the 413 blocks assigned in the code.

(1), FRACTEL, LLC (1), FRONTIER SOUTHWEST INC DBA FRONTIER COMM OF TEXAS (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2004-06-03 and the most recent 2021-03-02. 2 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
