Common Movie Issue

244 views

Why does everyone in movies leave out the area code when calling someone??? They always only dial 7 digits. What kind of magical world is this where you don’t have to type the area code? I’ve noticed it way too many times on tv.

My grandparents lived in a rural Wisconsin town where you only had to dial the last 4 digits if calling someone in the same exchange. Which pretty much covered the whole county because everyone was on party lines.
