In this case, the 805 code has been Overlayed with the 820 area code. New phone numbers in the La Mission Vieja De La Purisima area will be assigned with one of these codes: 805 or 820. As a result, placing a call in the La Mission Vieja De La Purisima area will require 10-digit dialing (where you enter both the area code and then the phone number).
<2>	The elevation is an estimate for the area around La Mission Vieja De La Purisima - it will be higher in some places and lower in others.
