The other area codes laid over 614
Area code 614 does not have Columbus to itself. 1 other code — 380 — 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.
3801,449 blocks, 16 rate centres, mostly VoIP
Each holds its own blocks and its own carrier mix, so a 614 number and a 380 number from the same street can report different line types. Filtering Columbus by area code needs all 2 of them.
614 is not confined to Columbus itself: its blocks sit across 16 rate centres, named in the table below.

Where 614 numbers are concentrated
NANPA truncates rate-centre names to ten characters and drops the spaces, which is why Westervl is shortened. Names are reproduced as recorded rather than expanded — the abbreviation is the key the block data is filed under.

The largest holder, Verizon Wireless, has 22% of the code.
These are original allocations. A number keeps its digits and its block when its subscriber moves network, so a ported 614 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 614?
Area code 614 covers Columbus, Ohio. It is not the only code there: 380 is an overlay on the same rate centres, so a Columbus, Ohio number can start with any of them.
Is a 614 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 614 the split runs 46% mobile, 50% landline and 5% VoIP, so landline is the most likely single answer.
Which carriers hold 614 numbers?
The largest holders are Verizon Wireless, Aerial Communications, Inc., Ohio Bell Tel Co. That is the carrier the block was allocated to, which is not necessarily the network a given number sits on today.
How many 614 numbers are there?
The code holds 5,644 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 614 covers on the order of 5,644,000 possible numbers — most of which have never been issued to anyone.
