The numbering plan area (NPA) includes the cities of Bentonville, Fort Smith, Fayetteville, Rogers, Siloam Springs and Springdale. It was created on January 19, 2002 in an area code split of area code 501.
When 870 transitioned to ten-digit calling in January 2024, this is only Arkansas area code that still uses seven-digit local calling for now.
