The towns inside area code 912
Area code 912 is not a city code. It covers 72 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 912 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.
Georgia is split across 10 area codes — 470, 678, 912, 706, 229, 404 and others. By allocated blocks 912 is the third largest of them, holding 12% of the Georgia total.
Where 912 numbers are concentrated
NANPA truncates rate-centre names to ten characters and drops the spaces, which is why St Marys is 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 34% of the code.
These are original allocations. A number keeps its digits and its block when its subscriber moves network, so a ported 912 number still reports the carrier it started with. Closing that gap needs a live query against the routing database. How line type is derived.
