Area code 763
Area code 763 covers Minneapolis. We hold 2,640 allocated blocks for it across 10 rate centres, split 43% mobile, 47% landline and 11% VoIP.
The other area codes laid over 763
Area code 763 does not have Minneapolis to itself. 3 other codes — 612, 651, 952 — serve 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.
6123,867 blocks, 2 rate centres, mostly mobile
6513,160 blocks, 13 rate centres, mostly landline
9522,124 blocks, 3 rate centres, mostly landline
Each holds its own blocks and its own carrier mix, so a 763 number and a 612 number from the same street can report different line types. Filtering Minneapolis by area code needs all 4 of them.
763 is not confined to Minneapolis itself: its blocks sit across 10 rate centres, named in the table below.
Minnesota is split across 7 area codes — 507, 218, 612, 320, 651, 763 and others. By allocated blocks 763 is the 6th largest of them, holding 11% of the Minnesota total.

The largest holder, Qwest Corporation, has 15% of the code.
These are original allocations. A number keeps its digits and its block when its subscriber moves network, so a ported 763 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 763?
Area code 763 covers Minneapolis. It is not the only code there: 612, 651, 952 are overlays on the same rate centres, so a Minneapolis number can start with any of them.
Is a 763 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 763 the split runs 43% mobile, 47% landline and 11% VoIP, so landline is the most likely single answer.
Which carriers hold 763 numbers?
The largest holders are Qwest Corporation, Aerial Communications, Inc., Verizon Wireless. That is the carrier the block was allocated to, which is not necessarily the network a given number sits on today.
How many 763 numbers are there?
The code holds 2,640 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 763 covers on the order of 2,640,000 possible numbers — most of which have never been issued to anyone.
