The 314 area code serves St. Louis and a cluster of close-in communities including Florissant. It's the code most closely tied to the city of St. Louis itself, as opposed to the outer suburbs.
314 shares its broader region with the 636 area code, which covers many of the farther-out suburbs like O'Fallon, St. Charles, St. Peters, Chesterfield, and Wentzville. Cape Girardeau, further south, is also part of the wider Missouri calling landscape. 314 and 636 both work fine for calling and texting anywhere in the US and Canada, so the choice between them comes down to which one reads as more local for your situation.
The entire region runs on Central time (America/Chicago). If you're coordinating calls between St. Louis and the Chesterfield or Wentzville side of the metro, everyone's on the same clock, so there's no timezone math to worry about.
