Being able to identify the area codes of incoming calls can be advantageous, especially with the rising incidences of phone scams. People are generally more hesitant to accept calls they do not recognize. However, the ability to identify the state’s area code can help you recognize local calls. This is easier for residents of North Dakota as there is only one area code for the entire state. Regardless of the area code of an unknown caller, it is possible to identify them using a reverse phone lookup search.
