Ready to establish a presence in major cities like Los Angeles and San Diego?

Let’s first look at why you might need an 858 area code.

Where is area code 858?

Area code 858 is in the Pacific time zone, serving San Diego and surrounding areas. The prefix was launched by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) as an overlay for the 619 area code and covers some of the same geographic area.

Area codes are managed by the North American Numbering Plan Administration (NANPA). If you look at an area code map, the area code 858 location extends north from the San Diego beach communities into La Jolla, Del Mar, and Solana Beach, and inland to Rancho Santa Fe, Rancho Bernardo, and Poway. North County doesn’t share this area code, using 619 instead.

As well as the city of San Diego, area code 858 cities include Chula Vista, El Cajon, Lemon Grove, National City, Santee, and La Mesa. Check out an area code 858 map here.

Why your business needs a San Diego area code

If you want to target San Diego, it makes sense to get a local number for that area code—even if your business isn’t located there.

Whether they’re in Coronado or Imperial Beach, San Diego County residents can dial you without worrying about long-distance charges. Plus, customers and prospects are more likely to answer local calls.

Local numbers add credibility, especially when associated with a cultural and economic hub like area code San Diego. It helps that the area has two companies on the Fortune 500 list- telecom equipment firm Qualcomm and Sempra Energy-and is home to the NPA.

San Diego is known for its healthcare, scientific, tech, and defense industries. The area has an average household income higher than the US average­, making it a particularly good place to establish your brand.

Even better, the 858 area code for San Diego has enough capacity to last another 30 years or more.
