About the 609 area code
Since 1957, area code 609 has served Trenton and much of New Jersey around it, including Princeton, Atlantic City, Ocean City, and Mount Holly, all on Eastern time.
The code's territory originally came out of area code 201. It later gave rise to area code 856, and it now shares its remaining ground with area code 640 in an overlay, an arrangement under which local calls are dialed with all ten digits.
Dialing note: 609 is part of an overlay complex with 640, so local calls in this area are dialed with all ten digits.
Numbering details on this page (service dates and overlay status) are checked against the NANPA numbering registry. Registry data as of 07/16/2026.
