Map of California area codes in blue (and border states) with 909 in red

North American Area code 909 is a California telephone area code which was split from area code 714 on November 14, 1992. Western Riverside County was split off from 909 into area code 951 on July 17, 2004. 909 still covers small portions of Corona, Riverside, and Moreno Valley which are in Riverside County.

The 909 area code now covers far eastern Los Angeles County and southwestern San Bernardino County. It contains cities such as: Colton, San Bernardino, Ontario, Fontana, Chino, and Pomona.

The cost of living in "the 909" is generally less expensive than many parts of Los Angeles and Orange counties. Thus, many people live in "the 909" and commute westward to Orange and Los Angeles counties[1]. Under the traditional NANPA plan, 909 was the "worst" area code for pulse dialers (due to the relatively long time required to send the pulses) in contrast to area codes such as 212 and 213.
