History of the 332 Area Code
The 332 area code was officially implemented on June 10, 2017, to accommodate the rapid depletion of phone numbers in Manhattan. It is an overlay to the existing 212, 646, and 917 area codes, meaning multiple area codes now serve the same geographic area.
Since it's part of an overlay system, 10-digit dialling is required for local calls within the region.

Dial the full 10-digit number (332-XXX-XXXX)
