Area code 310 covers the West Los Angeles and South Bay areas of Los Angeles County, a small portion of Ventura County, and Santa Catalina Island.
Area code 424 was added as an overlay to the 310 area code on July 26, 2006. Both 310 and 424 serve the same geographic region. Since December 31, 2005, ten-digit dialing (1 + area code + seven-digit number) is required when placing calls between these area codes and to other area codes.
Western Los Angeles County's 310 area code spans Santa Monica, Beverly Hills, and Torrance, where entertainment, tech, and healthcare intersect. Talent agency assistants, Google and Snap recruiters, UCLA Health appointment lines, and luxury hotel concierge desks are all common callers.
