About the 959 area code
Since 2014, Connecticut has used area code 959 alongside area code 860. Hartford is the principal city, and the code extends to New Haven, Bridgeport, Stamford, and Waterbury, all in the Eastern time zone (GMT -5).
The code functions as an overlay of 860, meaning both codes cover one shared territory rather than dividing it. Ten-digit dialing is standard for local calls wherever such an arrangement exists.
Dialing note: 959 is part of an overlay complex with 860, 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.
