History of the 934 Area Code
The 934 area code was introduced in July 2016 as an overlay to the 631 area code due to number exhaustion in the Long Island region, specifically Suffolk County, which had previously been served exclusively by 631. Unlike a geographic split, the overlay meant that 934 covers the same area as 631, and with its implementation, 10-digit dialing became mandatory for all local calls within the region.
