The towns inside area code 913
Area code 913 is not a city code. It covers 34 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 913 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.
Kansas is split across 4 area codes — 785, 620, 913, 316. By allocated blocks 913 is the third largest of them, holding 26% of the Kansas total.
Where 913 numbers are concentrated
NANPA truncates rate-centre names to ten characters and drops the spaces, which is why Bonner Spg is shortened. Names are reproduced as recorded rather than expanded — the abbreviation is the key the block data is filed under.

These are original allocations. A number keeps its digits and its block when its subscriber moves network, so a ported 913 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 913?
Area code 913 is centred on Kansas City, Kansas and spans 34 rate centres, so it covers a region rather than a town.
Is a 913 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 913 the split runs 43% mobile, 46% landline and 10% VoIP, so landline is the most likely single answer.
Which carriers hold 913 numbers?
The largest holders are Southwestern Bell, Aerial Communications, Inc., Onvoy. That is the carrier the block was allocated to, which is not necessarily the network a given number sits on today.
How many 913 numbers are there?
