Reach both sides of the bi-state metro with an 816 virtual number — the original Kansas City area code serving Oracle Health's KC campus, America's second-largest rail hub, and the Missouri heartland. Activate in seconds.
Area code 816 covers Kansas City, Missouri and its Missouri-side suburbs — Lee's Summit, Independence, Liberty, Blue Springs, and the surrounding region. Kansas City is America's second-largest rail hub (behind Chicago), home to Oracle Health (formerly Cerner) whose global HQ is in the KC metro, H&R Block, and a thriving agri-business economy anchored by Cargill and Tyson Foods. The metro's revitalised Crossroads arts district and expanded T-Mobile Center have added new layers to a city whose economy spans healthcare IT, agriculture, logistics, and financial services.
