Note that this map is clickable ; click on any area code to go to the page for that area code . Area codes 570 and 272 are telephone area codes serving the northeast quadrant of Pennsylvania , including the cities / towns of Scranton , Wilkes - Barre , Williamsport , Stroudsburg , East Stroudsburg , Pittston , Carbondale , Hazleton , Clarks Summit , Towanda , Bloomsburg , Sayre , Tunkhannock , Berwick , Milford , Montrose , Honesdale , Mount Pocono , Nanticoke , Tamaqua , Mahanoy City , Sunbury , Jim Thorpe , as far south as Pottsville and as far west as Lock Haven . 570 is the main area code , while 272 is an overlay covering the same territory as 570 . 570 was split from area code 717 on December 5 , 1998 . It was the first new Pennsylvania area code created outside Philadelphia and Pittsburgh since the implementation of the area code system . In 2009 , it was projected that 570 would run out of numbers in the third quarter of 2011 . The Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission considered four options -- an overlay plan and three split plans . All but one of the splits would have left Scranton and Wilkes - Barre , the two largest cities in the 570 territory , within the same area code . On July 15 , 2010 , the PUC decided the new area code , 272 , would be implemented as an overlay. 272 officially entered service on March 28 , 2013 . Ten - digit dialing became mandatory in northeastern Pennsylvania on September 21 , 2013 . In 2015 there were 11 available prefixes in 570 . By 2017 , 570 had been completely exhausted ; only one prefix was left in February , and that prefix was exhausted by May .
