I’m lucky there. I moved across the country and never changed my phone number, but the few people who would call me from where I used to live are already in my contacts, so I know that 99% of the time, if it’s a local or regional area code to where I live now, it’s not a spam call. It’s been true for 10 years now. I don’t know if there is a way to get a phone number from another area code where you don’t live, but it would be a good solution for some people.
