North American area code 480 is a state of Arizona telephone area
code which was split from area code 602 on April 1, 1999, because
of the explosive growth of the Phoenix metropolitan area in the
1990s. The west side and the western half of the far north side
became Area code 623, while the eastern suburbs and the Phoenix
neighborhood ofAhwatukee became Area Code 480.

The 480 area code encompasses Scottsdale,Paradise Valley,
Tempe, Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, Apache Junction, as well as far
northeast Phoenix and the Phoenix neighborhood of Ahwatukee, and
newer unincorporated communities in far northwest Pinal County
which are becoming part of the Greater Phoenix metropolitan area
due to heavy development. Also in area code 480 are pagers for the
Iridium satellite telephone service.
