Maine, by the numbers.

Maine was assigned a single area code in 1947: 207, covering the entire state. For 78 years 207 has carried all of Maine — Portland, Bangor, Augusta, Lewiston, the Down East coast and the North Woods — without a single split or overlay.

Maine is one of only 11 US states that have never received an additional area code. The state's slow population growth (Maine has been the slowest-growing state in some decades) and stable cellular demand have kept 207 sufficient for nearly eight decades.

Today 207 remains Maine's only area code. "207" has become Maine cultural shorthand — featured on local apparel brands, lobster-shack signage, craft brewery labels and the Portland Sea Dogs scoreboard. No state has held one code longer than Maine has held 207.

DID YOU KNOW?

Maine has held a single area code (207) for 78 years — tied with New Hampshire (603), Vermont (802) and Rhode Island (401) among New England states with unbroken single-code coverage since 1947. Maine's slow population growth (just 4% from 2000-2020) means 207 still has number capacity with no overlay planned.

Why 207 matters in Maine

207 is Maine's signature — the state's only area code since 1947, covering every Mainer, every lobster boat dispatcher, every L.L. Bean office in Freeport, every Bates/Bowdoin/Colby alumnus, every Acadia ranger station. Local apparel brand "207 Lifestyle" built an entire business around the prefix. The number is essentially Maine itself in three digits.

Six reasons to pick a Maine number.

A local Maine prefix outperforms an out-of-state cell at every customer touchpoint.

A 207 reads "Mainer through and through"

The state's only area code since 1947 — 207 is the unmistakable Maine credential. Every Mainer recognises it instantly. Local brands, lobster boats, the LL Bean catalog all carry 207.

Eastern Time alignment with Boston + East Coast

Maine sits in Eastern Time aligned with Boston (closest major metro), NYC and DC. A 207 prefix tells East Coast clients you're on their schedule.

Cover all of Maine with one prefix

207 covers Portland, Bangor, Augusta, Lewiston, Auburn, Biddeford, every coastal town from Kittery to Eastport. One prefix tells every Mainer you're local.

STIR/SHAKEN-clean caller ID

NANPA-routed Maine numbers pass carrier authentication, so cold-call recipients see your local prefix instead of a flagged "Spam Likely" tag.

Seasonal-business friendly

Maine's tourism and lobster industries operate seasonally. A 207 prefix tells summer visitors and out-of-state clients you're the local contact — keep it through the off-season at no extra cost.

Held free if you pause

Cancel service and your Maine number is reserved free for 12 months — keep your 207 across snowbird seasons and seasonal moves.

Frequently asked questions about Maine area codes.

What is Maine's area code?
207 — assigned in 1947 when the NANP launched. It has been Maine's only area code for 78 years, covering Portland, Bangor, Augusta, Lewiston, Auburn, Biddeford and every Maine town from Kittery to the Canadian border.
Does Maine have only one area code?
Yes. Maine has never been split or overlaid — 207 covers the entire state and has since 1947. Maine is one of 11 US states that have never received an additional area code, tied with NH, VT and RI for longest unbroken single-code coverage in New England.
What area code is Portland Maine?
207 — covers Portland, South Portland, Westbrook, Scarborough, Falmouth and the entire Greater Portland metro plus all of Maine. L.L. Bean (Freeport), MaineHealth and Portland Sea Dogs all use 207.
What area code is Bangor?
207 — covers Bangor, Brewer, the University of Maine in Orono, Eastern Maine Medical Center, and all of central and northern Maine including Acadia National Park.
Why does Maine have only one area code?
Maine's relatively small population (1.4M) and slow growth rate (one of the slowest-growing US states) mean 207 still has number capacity after 78 years. The state's strong cultural attachment to 207 makes adding an overlay unlikely in the near future.
Can I get a Maine number if I don't live in ME?
Yes. CallMama doesn't require a Maine billing address or proof of in-state residency. Pick a 207 Maine number from anywhere in the world — useful for seasonal residents, lobster industry contacts, or Maine-connected businesses.
Will my outbound calls show a Maine prefix?
Yes. Every outbound call displays your 207 area code on the recipient's caller ID — Portland residents, Bangor locals and Down East lobster boat captains all see a familiar prefix.
Can I port my existing Maine number to CallMama?
Yes. Any ME number from Consolidated Communications, Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, Spectrum or any other US carrier can be ported in. Porting typically completes in 3–7 business days.
