Mississippi, the Magnolia State, is rich in Southern heritage, blues music, and historic significance. From antebellum architecture in Natchez to the birthplace of Elvis Presley in Tupelo, Mississippi’s cultural depth runs deep. The mighty Mississippi River defines its western border, supporting both agriculture and commerce.

Telecommunication in Mississippi started with area code 601. As the state grew, additional area codes such as 228 for the Gulf Coast, 662 for northern areas, and overlays like 769 were introduced. Today, Mississippi area codes provide coverage for both urban centers like Jackson and rural farming communities, ensuring consistent statewide connectivity.
