About the 816 area code
The 816 area code covers Kansas City, Missouri and the Missouri side of the metro. 816 has covered Kansas City since 1947. On the Missouri side of the state line, it's the code that reads as local to KC customers. For a business, a 816 number signals a local presence — customers in Kansas City are far more likely to answer a call or reply to a text from a number they recognize as local.
