Uptime VoIP Coverage in the 989 Phone Area Code

The 989 area code was created in 2001 when it was split from the 517 area code to accommodate the growing demand for telephone numbers in central and northeastern Michigan. Covering a large geographic area, it serves cities such as Saginaw, Midland, Bay City, Mount Pleasant, and Alpena, along with many rural communities. The split allowed 517 to serve the southern part of the state, while 989 took over the central and northeastern regions. Since its establishment, the 989 area code has become an integral part of Michigan’s communication infrastructure, connecting local businesses and residents in a primarily rural and industrial region.
