<2>The elevation is an estimate for the area around Misty Meadows - 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 801 code has been Overlayed with the 385 area code. New phone numbers in the Misty Meadows area will be assigned with one of these codes: 801 or 385.
