Area code 570 serves northeastern and central Pennsylvania, covering cities such as Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, Hazleton, Williamsport, and Pottsville. Established in 1998 after a split from 717, 570 reflects Pennsylvania’s anthracite coal region and areas with historic ties to railroads and manufacturing. Today, the area is more diversified with strong sectors in logistics, education, and healthcare. Scranton and Wilkes-Barre have revitalized their downtowns, leveraging history and proximity to New York City and Philadelphia for tourism and regional investment. The presence of universities, regional medical centers, and industrial parks supports a growing workforce. Williamsport is home to the Little League World Series and a respected college town vibe. A 570 number reflects local authenticity and is ideal for businesses serving small towns, rural communities, and legacy industries transitioning to modern service economies.
