775 Area Code in Nevada, United States

Area code 775 serves all of Nevada outside of the Las Vegas metropolitan area, including cities such as Reno, Carson City, Elko, and Sparks. It was created in 1998 when it was split from area code 702 due to the rapid growth in southern Nevada. The 775 region includes a mix of scenic landscapes, mining towns, and expanding urban centers, especially in the Reno-Tahoe area. It covers the state capital and much of northern and rural Nevada, supporting a diverse economy that includes tourism, logistics, mining, and technology. 775 is a standalone area code and is an important symbol of northern Nevada’s independence and identity.
