Area code 929 is an overlay for New York City's outer boroughs, including the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, and Staten Island. Introduced in 2011 to supplement 347 and 718, it provides phone numbers for one of the most densely populated regions in the U.S. These boroughs are vital to the cultural and economic fabric of the city, housing millions of residents and thousands of small businesses. The 929 area code is tied to a diverse population and includes neighborhoods with strong immigrant communities, major public institutions, and vibrant local economies. Whether you're calling a bodega in Brooklyn or a law firm in Queens, 929 signals you're in the thick of NYC life. Its association with resilience, hustle, and multiculturalism makes it a recognizable part of New York's telecom identity.
