Do you all have to dial the area code even when making a local call?

Yeah but only because of the area code. Borrowed glory, ma'am. When are you going to shine on your own, huh?

NYC has 10-digit dialing everywhere. It's a PITA.

Pretty much all of Southeast Michigan was 313 for most of my life. It was only a couple of years before I moved out here to LA that 313 became only Detroit proper, and extra area codes were added for the outlying areas, and I discovered I was only a lowly 734.

MD was the first state to do the 10 digit dialing. I am now completely thrown off whenever I'm somewhere that doesn't have it.
