Why Choose a 872 Area Code?
The 872 area code was introduced in 2009 to support the increasing demand for phone numbers in Chicago, one of the most densely populated and economically active cities in the U.S. It serves the same geographic area as 312 and 773, including downtown Chicago, North Side, South Side, and parts of the West Side.
Whether you're in fintech, legal services, real estate, or local service industries, a 872 number helps you build trust with Chicago-based clients and partners.
