Why your business might need a Denver area code

With an estimated population of 693,000 people, Denver is the biggest city in the state of Colorado and the 19th largest in the United States. (It’s also seen as a gateway to the west coast and the midwest and southwest states.)

It’s an ideal place to get your business known—especially since the area generally has low unemployment and healthy disposable income. Notable businesses include the Gates Corporation, Frontier Airlines, and the Newport Mining Company. Many local residents work in healthcare, scientific, and technical services.

Even if you’re based on the other side of the country, setting up a Denver Colorado area code will give your company a local feel and help you target residents from Commerce City to Centennial. And if you're running regional marketing campaigns, having a local calling number increases the chances of potential customers dialing your number (since it's not long-distance).

Say you’re looking to expand into Littleton or Longmont. Your outbound contact center teams will also find it easier to connect with prospects and customers, since they'll be more likely to pick up if the phone call is coming from a recognizable local number.
