In this case, the 204 code has been Overlayed with one of the following codes: 431 or 584. New phone numbers in the Brandon area will be assigned with one of these codes: 204, 431 or 584. As a result, placing a call in the Brandon area will require 10-digit dialing (where you enter both the area code and then the phone number).
