The local calling area depends on where you are in area code 909. Traditionally, the local calling area in California is anything within 12 miles (measured from "rate center" to "rate center").
Note that there is no correlation between "in the same area code" and "local call." There may be calls that are billed as local, even though they are in a different area code, and there may be calls that are toll, even though they're in the same area code.

What year did Colorado begin 10-digit dialing?
The Denver area began mandatory 10-digit dialing of local calls in 1998, in preparation for the 303/720 area code overlay. All local calls within, between, into, or out from the 303 and 720 area codes must be dialed with 10 digits. Other local calls within area code 970 or within area code 719 may be dialable as either 7 or 10 digits.
Are dialing area codes necessary?
Area codes provide a level of organization for telephone numbers, allowing a shorter number to be dialed for local and nearby calls than for cross-country calls. Not all countries use area codes. In some areas, you must dial the area code, even for local calls in the same area code. In countries like Spain, France, and Italy, all calls must be dialed with the full national number. That requirement loosens some restrictions on assignable numbers. In the United States and Canada, in places that have overlay area codes (two or more area codes serving the same or overlapping geographic areas), you must dial the area code on all calls, for two reasons. One is to reduce the potential for customer confusion, since it may not be immediately obvious which area code a particular telephone belongs to. The other is to reduce the competitive disadvantage for new local phone companies, since they are more likely to have numbers in the newer area code(s) than the established phone company.

Why if calling from a 314 area would need to dial 314 area code?
In areas with "toll alerting" (you must dial 1+ for all toll calls), you must dial 1+area+number even if the area code is the same. Many cell phones require you to dial the area code and number to prevent confusion with other nearby area codes. In overlay areas, you must always dial the area code. In some overlay areas, you can dial just the area+number for local calls; in others, you must dial 1+area+number for all calls, local or toll.
Is a call from area code 310 to 424 long distance?
