About the 804 area code
Area code 804 covers Richmond, Virginia and the surrounding central Virginia region, including Henrico and Chesterfield counties, Petersburg, and the counties out toward the Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula. It was created in 1973 when it split from 703, and it once reached Hampton Roads before 757 was carved out in 1996. Locals treat 804 as the Richmond code, and the number shows up on local apparel and business signage as a marker of the city.
For a business in Richmond, Midlothian, or Mechanicsville, an 804 number tells customers you are part of the local market rather than a call center somewhere else. The region is dense with home services, real estate, and small trades, and a local caller ID is often the difference between a callback and a voicemail. Since 2022 the 686 overlay has shared the same territory, and customers treat both as central Virginia numbers.
