Area code 572 is centred on Oklahoma City. We hold 1,033 allocated blocks for it across 52 rate centres, split 55% mobile, 3% landline and 43% VoIP.
The other area codes laid over 572
Area code 572 does not have Oklahoma City to itself. 1 other code — 405 — serves the same rate centres, laid over the same ground rather than dividing it. That is an overlay: a new code added when the old one ran out of numbers, covering the same streets. Two neighbours can hold different area codes, so the code says roughly when a number was issued rather than where it sits.
4056,221 blocks, 93 rate centres, mostly mobile
Each holds its own blocks and its own carrier mix, so a 572 number and a 405 number from the same street can report different line types. Filtering Oklahoma City by area code needs all 2 of them.
572 is not confined to Oklahoma City itself: its blocks sit across 52 rate centres, named in the table below.
Oklahoma is split across 5 area codes — 405, 918, 580, 539, 572. By allocated blocks 572 is the 5th largest of them, holding 5% of the Oklahoma total.
Where 572 numbers are concentrated
NANPA truncates rate-centre names to ten characters and drops the spaces, which is why Midwest Cy and Pauls Vly are shortened. Names are reproduced as recorded rather than expanded — the abbreviation is the key the block data is filed under.

The largest holder, United States Cellular, 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 572 number still reports the carrier it started with. Closing that gap needs a live query against the routing database. How line type is derived.

Common questions
Where is area code 572?
Area code 572 covers Oklahoma City. It is not the only code there: 405 is an overlay on the same rate centres, so a Oklahoma City number can start with any of them.
Is a 572 number a mobile or a landline?
It can be either, and the digits do not say which. North American mobile and landline numbers share the same ranges, so the answer comes from the carrier holding the block. In 572 the split runs 55% mobile, 3% landline and 43% VoIP, so mobile is the most likely single answer.
Which carriers hold 572 numbers?
The largest holders are United States Cellular, Onvoy, AT&T Wireless. That is the carrier the block was allocated to, which is not necessarily the network a given number sits on today.
How many 572 numbers are there?
The code holds 1,033 allocated blocks in our copy of the numbering plan. A block is 1,000 or 10,000 consecutive numbers depending on how deeply it has been pooled, so 572 covers on the order of 1,033,000 possible numbers — most of which have never been issued to anyone.
