The 571 area code is an overlay for 703, which originally covered Northern Virginia. Now both area codes serve the same geographic region.
An overlay area code is a second code assigned to the same area as an existing one. It allows for more phone numbers without requiring changes to current users' numbers.
There are over 300 active area codes in the United States, with new overlays introduced as demand grows.
Originally assigned by geography and population size, area codes now follow overlays and other rules to keep up with growth, making them more flexible, though less geographically consistent.
