The towns inside area code 361
Area code 361 is not a city code. It covers 71 separate rate centres — billing areas, each its own local calling zone. The largest of them are named in the table below.
That matters twice over. A call between two 361 numbers is not necessarily a local call, because they can sit in different rate centres. And a code this wide narrows a subscriber to a region rather than a town.
Texas is split across 28 area codes — 346, 832, 469, 210, 956, 361 and others. By allocated blocks 361 is the 16th largest of them, holding 3% of the Texas total.
Where 361 numbers are concentrated
NANPA truncates rate-centre names to ten characters and drops the spaces, which is why C Christi and Hallettsvl are shortened. Names are reproduced as recorded rather than expanded — the abbreviation is the key the block data is filed under.

The largest holder, AT&T Wireless, has 20% of the code.
These are original allocations. A number keeps its digits and its block when its subscriber moves network, so a ported 361 number still reports the carrier it started with. Closing that gap needs a live query against the routing database. How line type is derived.

Which carriers hold 361 numbers?
