About the 505 area code
New Mexico's area code 505 takes in Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, Santa Fe, Farmington, and Gallup. Every part of the territory observes Mountain time.
Dating to the original round of assignments in 1947, the code later ceded part of its ground when area code 575 was split away. Since then its coverage has stayed steady, and it continues to operate without an overlay.
Dialing note: 505 has been in service since 1947, making it one of the original North American area codes.
Numbering details on this page (service dates and overlay status) are checked against the NANPA numbering registry. Registry data as of 07/16/2026.
