Columbus accounts for the largest share of 380 prefixes, with Dublin and Westerville next. A local number in any of them reads as local to everyone else on the list, because they all dial on 380.
Which area codes overlay 380?
380 is part of an overlay complex with 614. An overlay puts more than one area code over the same geography instead of splitting the region in two, so existing numbers keep their code and new ones get the added code. Two neighbours on the same street can hold different area codes. That is why ten-digit dialling is required here: you cannot assume a local call shares your area code.

The 380 area code is in the Eastern time zone. Right now it is about 11:29 PM there. If you are calling a 380 number, check the local time first so you reach someone during business hours. If you run a business on a 380 line, missing a call after hours means the caller moves on to the next name on their list.
How to write a 380 phone number
