Area code 907 covers the entire state of Alaska, except for the small southeastern Alaska community of Hyder, Alaska, which uses the 250 area code of neighboring Stewart, British Columbia. A telephone numbering plan is a plan for allocating Telephone number ranges to countries regions areas and exchanges and to non-fixed telephone networks A US state is any one of the fifty subnational entities of the United States of America that share Sovereignty with the federal government Alaska ( Аляска Alyaska) is a state in the United States of America, in the northwest of the North American continent Hyder is a Census-designated place (CDP in Prince of Wales-Outer Ketchikan Census Area, Alaska, United States. Stewart is a small town at the head of the Portland Canal in western British Columbia, Canada. Area Code 907 was assigned in 1957 along with Area Code 808 for Hawaii.
Because there is only one area code in the state, locals in smaller Alaskan towns routinely give only the last 4 digits of their telephone numbers since the first six digits serve as an area code, and generally don't need to be known. For example, around Ketchikan, instead of 907-225-XXXX people will merely say XXXX since most of the numbers in that area use the 225 3-digit prefix (and the 907 area code). However, this is generally not the case in the larger cities, such as Fairbanks and Anchorage. This also tends not to be the case in the Mat-Su valley and in other areas where there is more than one 2nd 3-digit prefix. A similar phenomenon occurs in cities with the same area code (where the area code is left off, leaving only the 7-digits).
