Area code 954 covers Fort Lauderdale, Florida. We hold 5,262 allocated blocks for it across 6 rate centres, split 40% mobile, 50% landline and 10% VoIP.
The other area codes laid over 954
Area code 954 does not have Fort Lauderdale, Florida to itself. 1 other code — 754 — 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.
7542,224 blocks, 5 rate centres, mostly mobile
Each holds its own blocks and its own carrier mix, so a 954 number and a 754 number from the same street can report different line types. Filtering Fort Lauderdale, Florida by area code needs all 2 of them.

Where 954 numbers are concentrated

These are original allocations. A number keeps its digits and its block when its subscriber moves network, so a ported 954 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 954?
Area code 954 covers Fort Lauderdale, Florida. It is not the only code there: 754 is an overlay on the same rate centres, so a Fort Lauderdale, Florida number can start with any of them.
Is a 954 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 954 the split runs 40% mobile, 50% landline and 10% VoIP, so landline is the most likely single answer.
Which carriers hold 954 numbers?
