About 913 Area Code
Area code 913 serves the northeastern corner of Kansas, focusing on the Kansas side of the Kansas City metropolitan area. Created in 1947 as one of the original 86 area codes, 913 initially covered the entire northern half of Kansas before being reduced to its current footprint in 1997. Today, it covers major cities including Overland Park, Kansas City (Kansas), Olathe, Shawnee, Lenexa and Leavenworth, spanning eight counties in the densely populated Kansas City metro. The code supports local voice and SMS-capable numbers used by technology companies, healthcare providers, logistics operations and professional services throughout this dynamic suburban region.
The 913 region anchors one of the Midwest's fastest-growing economies. Major employers include technology firms (Garmin, T-Mobile), healthcare systems (University of Kansas Hospital), manufacturing operations (General Motors, Honeywell), and corporate headquarters (H&R Block, Hallmark Cards across the state line). The area benefits from exceptional infrastructure with five Class I railroads, four major interstate highways, and central access to the national market. Businesses use 913 numbers for customer support, appointment scheduling, sales outreach and professional services. A recognizable local number generates stronger answer rates than out-of-state alternatives because it signals genuine Kansas City presence.
FoneSwift displays live 913 inventory with real-time capability filters on this page. Search available numbers to verify Voice, SMS and MMS support before purchasing. Area code 913 is not near exhaustion and projections indicate it will serve the Kansas City metro well beyond 2045. If 913 numbers are temporarily limited in specific exchanges, the nearby Missouri side uses area codes 816 and 975, though a Kansas-based 913 number offers stronger local recognition for businesses targeting Kansas customers.
If your business serves the Kansas City metro or targets suburban Kansas customers, display numbers in both local and E.164 formats (e.g., (913) 555-1234 and +1 913 555 1234) across your website and marketing materials.
