North American area codes 214, 469, and 972 are state of Texas telephone area codes for numbers in the Dallas area. Area code 214 was one of the original area codes established in October 1947. Area code 972 was created on September 14, 1996 by splitting the Dallas suburbs from Dallas city proper, but was converted to an overlay when area code 469 was introduced on July 1, 1999. The result was three area codes overlaying the same area, and ten-digit dialing required for all calls.
