01 — Rhode Island at a Glance

Rhode Island, by the numbers.

Rhode Island received area code 401 in 1947. Because the state is so small and compact, one code was enough from the start — and still is.

Unlike most New England neighbors, Rhode Island has never needed a split or overlay. Providence, Newport, Warwick, Cranston, and Pawtucket all still dial 401.

Projections suggest 401 won't run out of available numbers for a very long time, keeping Rhode Island among a shrinking group of single-area-code states.

Did you know?

Rhode Island is the smallest state by area, yet it has needed only one area code, 401, for its entire population since 1947, with no split or overlay expected for decades.
