The 570 area code serves a broad section of northeastern and north-central Pennsylvania, including Allentown, Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, Hazleton, Williamsport, Fullerton, Dunmore, and Kingston. It's one of the larger geographic area codes in the state, stretching from the Lehigh Valley up through the Poconos and into the Susquehanna Valley.
570 shares its territory with the 272 overlay, which was added to serve the same region as demand for numbers grew. Nearby Allentown and the Lehigh Valley are also served by the 484 and 610 overlay pair, a separate but neighboring numbering complex. You'll dial the full area code plus number for local calls in this region.
The entire 570 region runs on Eastern Time. Whether you're calling someone in Scranton or texting a client in Williamsport, everyone in this area code is on the same clock, which makes scheduling calls simple.
