In the North American Numbering Plan, the first three digits of a 10-digit phone number are the Numbering Plan Area (NPA), commonly called the area code. Digits 4–6 are the central office code (NXX / “exchange”), and the last four digits identify the individual line.

US5’s 701 page groups ZIP codes that are associated with this NPA in published geography data. That is a place-based view — it is not a live directory of every phone number assigned to 701, and overlays or split NPAs can mean multiple area codes serve the same metro.

Seeing area code 701 on caller ID does not prove the caller is physically in MN, MT, ND, and SD. Spoofing tools can display almost any NPA, including local-looking numbers used in IRS, bank, warranty, and “grandparent” scams.

If you receive an unexpected call about taxes, arrests, or locked accounts: hang up, do not share codes or remote-access software, and contact the organization using a number from its official website or your statement — not a number the caller provides. US5 publishes geography for research; it does not verify live callers.
