About 350 Area Code
Area code 350 serves Stockton, Modesto and the northern San Joaquin Valley region of California. Introduced on November 28, 2022 as an overlay for the existing 209 area code, 350 covers major communities including Stockton, Modesto, Tracy, Merced and Turlock, spanning San Joaquin, Stanislaus, Merced and several surrounding counties. The code supports local voice and SMS-capable numbers used by agricultural operations, logistics providers, healthcare facilities and businesses across this productive Central Valley corridor.
The 350 region powers California's agricultural economy with farms producing grapes, almonds, walnuts and dairy products alongside growing manufacturing, telecommunications and logistics sectors. The Port of Stockton serves as an inland shipping gateway, while the region's central location between San Francisco and Sacramento makes it a natural distribution hub. Local businesses use 350 numbers for customer orders, delivery coordination, appointment reminders and field operations because local area codes generate better answer rates than toll-free or distant numbers.
FoneSwift lists live 350 inventory and capabilities on this page. Search numbers to see which ones support Voice, SMS and MMS. Area code availability changes over time; if a local 350 number isn't available immediately, nearby Central Valley codes like 209 or Sacramento-area codes may provide similar regional recognition while you wait for preferred inventory.
If your business serves Stockton, Modesto or the broader Central Valley market, publish numbers in both local and E.164 formats (e.g., (350) 555-1234 and +1 350 555 1234) and register messaging traffic if you plan A2P campaigns. For porting, review our porting guide. Many businesses keep the same number to preserve customer recognition and avoid confusion during transitions.

How Does Local 350 Phone Numbers Work?
A local business number is a structured telephone identifier that tells networks where to route calls and messages. When you use a 350 number in Stockton and California, the digits signal the international gateway, the geographic region, the local exchange and the specific subscriber, so calls reach the right destination quickly and reliably.
The typical parts of a United States local number are:
- Country code (+1): identifies United States for international routing.
- Area code (350): directs the call to the Stockton / California region.
- Central office / exchange (eg. 555): narrows the call to a local switching area or rate center.
- Subscriber number (eg. 1234): the unique line assigned to a person, extension, or device.
Example formats:
| International Format (E.164) | +1 350 555 1234 |
| Local Format (National) | (350) 555-1234 |
