North Dakota's single 701 area code serves the entire state — from Fargo's growing tech and healthcare sector to Bismarck's government hub and the oil-rich Bakken formation.
North Dakota uses a single area code, 701, spanning the entire state — Fargo (the largest city), Bismarck (the capital), Grand Forks (University of North Dakota), Minot (Minot Air Force Base), Williston and Dickinson (the Bakken oil fields), and the Devils Lake region — split between Central Time (east) and Mountain Time (the far west).
North Dakota's single 701 area code serves the entire state — from Fargo's growing tech and healthcare sector to Bismarck's government hub and the oil-rich Bakken formation. North Dakota's 701 code serves the epicentre of the Bakken Formation shale oil boom — making ND one of the top 3 US oil-producing states — alongside one of America's most productive agricultural economies and the Grand Forks Air Force Base complex, one of the most strategically important drone and ISR hubs in the US military.
