Kentucky, by the numbers.

Kentucky was assigned a single area code in 1947: 502, covering the entire state. 606 split off in 1954 for eastern Kentucky (Ashland, Pikeville, Hazard, Appalachia) leaving 502 with the west and central regions including Louisville.

Two splits in 1999 redrew the map. 270 split from 502 for western Kentucky (Bowling Green, Owensboro, Paducah, Hopkinsville), and 859 split from 606 for the central Bluegrass region (Lexington, Northern Kentucky / Covington / Florence).

364 was added in 2014 as the 270 overlay for western Kentucky — Kentucky's only overlay code. 502 today is restricted to Louisville and the immediate metro (Shelbyville, Bardstown), and 606 to the eastern Appalachian counties.

DID YOU KNOW?

Kentucky uniquely spans two time zones with its area codes — 502 (Louisville), 606 (East KY) and 859 (Lexington/Northern KY) sit in Eastern Time, while 270 (western Kentucky including Bowling Green, Owensboro, Paducah) and 364 sit in Central Time. The time-zone line cuts roughly through the middle of the state.

Pourquoi 502 importe dans Kentucky

502 est la signature de Louisville – l'indicatif régional original du Kentucky de 1947, désormais limité au métro de Louisville. Le Kentucky Derby (Churchill Downs), Louisville Slugger, Miam !

Brands HQ, Brown-Forman et le couloir de la distillerie de bourbon utilisent tous le 502. Le numéro est largement référencé dans le hip-hop de Louisville et porté sur l'équipement des jours de match des Cardinals (UofL).

Six reasons to pick a Kentucky number.

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

A 502 reads Louisville native

Restricted to the Louisville metro since 1999, 502 carries Derby City credibility — distinct from the 859 Lexington prefix used in the rest of the Bluegrass.

859 signals Lexington / Northern KY

Lexington, Keeneland, Transylvania, Northern Kentucky University, Florence — the central Bluegrass and the Cincinnati-adjacent NoKy region all use 859.

270 covers Bowling Green + Corvette country

Western Kentucky businesses, WKU alumni, GM Corvette plant employees and Owensboro distilleries all use 270. A 270 prefix reads as native to West KY.
