<2>The elevation is an estimate for the area around Montgomery Heights - 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 304 code has been Overlayed with the 681 area code. New phone numbers in the Montgomery Heights area will be assigned with one of these codes: 304 or 681.
