Why Choose a 762 Area Code?
The 762 area code was introduced to expand number availability in regions already served by the 706 code. As demand grew across Northern and Western Georgia, 762 ensured that businesses and residents could continue getting new numbers without changing existing ones.
Today, both 762 and 706 serve the same cities, including Augusta, Columbus, Rome, LaGrange, and Dalton. Choosing a 762 phone number gives you access to the same communities with more flexibility, especially if you’re expanding into Georgia or setting up a remote operation that needs local credibility.
