| <2> | The elevation is an estimate for the area around Anthony Ferry - it will be higher in some places and lower in others. |
| <3> | 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 706 code has been Overlayed with the 762 area code. New phone numbers in the Anthony Ferry area will be assigned with one of these codes: 706 or 762.
