In the great telephone renumbering known as phONEday, all geographic (landline) area codes added a 1 at the beginning, to provide the flexibility to rearrange other numbers into more sensible groupings. Prior to phONEday, mobile codes were interspersed randomly amidst the geographic landline codes; mobile numbers are now separated out into the 074-through-079 range.
