The 475 area code serves New Haven, Connecticut. It's an overlay code, meaning it covers the same geographic footprint as an existing prefix rather than a separate territory.
475 overlays the 203 area code in the New Haven region, so both prefixes serve the same streets and towns. The broader Connecticut area is also served by 860 and 959, which cover other parts of the state.
New Haven runs on America/New_York time, so calls and texts on a 475 number follow Eastern time. That makes scheduling straightforward if most of your contacts are also on the East Coast.
