In this case, the 718 code has been Overlayed with one of the following codes: 347, 465, 917 or 929. New phone numbers in the Springfield Gardens area will be assigned with one of these codes: 718, 347, 465, 917 or 929. As a result, placing a call in the Springfield Gardens area will require 10-digit dialing (where you enter both the area code and then the phone number).

ZIP Codes have been created by the United States Postal Service (USPS) as a way of grouping addresses to make delivery more efficient. The boundaries of the ZIP Code can be changed, re-assigned, eliminated or overlapped with other ZIP Codes. So keep in mind that any given ZIP Code is only 'loosely' associated with a community (such as Springfield Gardens). When looking for a ZIP Code, whether Springfield Gardens or elsewhere, it's always best to check the website of the United States Postal Service (USPS).
