Footnotes ...
| <1> | When there's a risk of an area code running out of phone numbers, an 'Overlay Area Code' is created that has the same geographic boundaries as the existing area code. In this case, the 310 code has been Overlayed with the 424 area code. New phone numbers in the Palos Verdes Estates area will be assigned with one of these codes: 310 or 424. As a result, placing a call in the Palos Verdes Estates area will require 10-digit dialing (where you enter both the area code and then the phone number). |
| <2> | ZIP Codes have been created by the United States Postal Service (USPS) as a way of grouping addresses to make delivery more efficient.

When looking for a ZIP Code, whether Palos Verdes Estates or elsewhere, it's always best to check the website of the United States Postal Service (USPS). |
