Area code 929 is an overlay for New York City's outer boroughs—Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island—alongside 718 and 347. Introduced in 2011, it was added to accommodate the city’s ever-increasing demand for mobile phones and new connections. The 929 area code requires ten-digit dialing and is commonly seen on new mobile and VoIP lines. While not as iconic as 718 or 347, 929 has quickly become an integral part of NYC’s communications infrastructure. It symbolizes the continued growth, diversity, and digital expansion of one of the world’s most dynamic urban areas.
