01/01/1959
Area code 408 was officially put into service. Area code 408 was created from a split of area code 415. In 1998 area code 408 was split to form area code 831.

Ten digit dialing (area code + seven digit number) is necessary in the 408/669 overlay because two different homes in the same geographic area can have the same seven digit phone number but each would have a different area code.
