A New Neighbor in the Phonebook: What the 564 Area Code Means for Vashon Island Residents
Starting June 10, Vashon Island residents may start seeing phone numbers with a new area code: 564. As an overlay to the familiar 206, this change won’t affect existing numbers but will apply to new lines in the region. While dialing habits remain the same, islanders are encouraged to update contact systems and materials to reflect full 10-digit numbers.
