In this case, the 804 code has been Overlayed with the 686 area code. New phone numbers in the Gay Farms area will be assigned with one of these codes: 804 or 686. As a result, placing a call in the Gay Farms area will require 10-digit dialing (where you enter both the area code and then the phone number). |
