Code

541 Area Code. What does it mean? Every time an area code changes, that area code can begin with any of the original numbers from 1 to 9. 541 Area Code could have started with 541, or it could have been 543. Either way, it means the same thing to the customer.

North American area code 541 covers the majority of Oregon in terms of surface area, except the northwest part of the state. Its service area includes the cities of Eugene, Springfield, Corvallis, Albany, Medford, Bend, Ashland, Klamath Falls, The Dalles, Burns, Lakeview, and Pendleton, as well as the coastal region from Lincoln County to the California border. It began its split from area code 503 on November 5, 1995, and finished June 30, 1996. It is overlaid with area code 458, effective February 10, 2010. (Source: en.wikipedia.org)

The 541 area code is one of the highest-capacity area codes with over 100 million active phone lines and averages 1. 2 million new phone numbers or lines added each year because of the area's great growth.

City

847 is the area code for Eugene, Oregon, a city in the U.S. state of Oregon.

This was intended as a long-term solution, as northwest Oregon has the great majority of Oregon's landlines and cell phones. However, by 2007, 541 was on the brink of exhaustion due to the proliferation of cell phones and pagers, particularly in Eugene, Corvallis and Medford. The supply of numbers was further limited because the 541 territory is split among four local access and transport areas (LATAs). Most of the numbering plan area is part of the Portland LATA, while the southwest portion is the Eugene LATA. Malheur County is part of the Boise/southern Idaho LATA, while the northeast is part of the Spokane, Washington LATA. (Source: en.wikipedia.org)
