The area code 769 is for central Mississippi. The area code 917 is one of New York City's area codes.
The "traditional" area code for Manhattan is 212. When cell phones first became popular, in the late 1990s to early 2000s, the area codes 917 and 646 were assigned for Manhattan cell phones.
The "traditional" area code for the other four boroughs (Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx, and Staten Island) was 718. Cell phones in these boroughs got the 347 area code.
But when we ran out of landline numbers, cell phone area codes were given to landlines. So, nowadays, if you receive a call from a 917, 646, or 347 number, it could be either a cell phone or a landline.
I have also heard of the reverse happening: cell phones getting landline area codes. My friend Anthony had a 212 area code for his cell phone.
Nowadays, Manhattan area codes are sometimes given to cell phones in the other four boroughs, and vice-versa. So, if you receive a call from a 212, 917, or 646 number, it might not be someone from Manhattan who's calling. They could be in The Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, or Staten Island. And if you receive a call from a 718 or 347 number, it could be someone from Manhattan who's calling.
In sum, the area codes for New York City are 212, 917, 646, 718, and 347.
