City population is shown in full. The share of each city inside 572 is measured from Census tract centroids, not estimated from a rate-center match – so a city split between two codes appears on both, at the fraction each one actually holds. The “% of listed-city population” column uses the full populations of the cities listed here.

Frequently Asked Questions about the 572 Area Code
Who called me from a 572 number?
A 572 number is assigned to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, so a call may come from there. But caller ID is easy to fake, and scammers often spoof a local 572 code to look nearby, so a 572 number doesn't prove the caller is local. Recently, 225 unwanted-call complaints were reported to the FTC for numbers showing the 572 code (65% flagged as robocalls). If you don't recognize the number, let it go to voicemail; a real caller will leave a message.
Is 572 a scam area code?
No area code is a scam on its own. 572 is a normal, officially assigned code for Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Spam callers spoof local codes to raise the odds you answer, so 572 on your caller ID says nothing about who is really calling. Recently, 225 unwanted-call complaints were reported to the FTC for numbers showing the 572 code (65% flagged as robocalls). Judge the call itself, not the area code.
Why do I keep getting calls from the 572 area code?
Repeated calls from different 572 numbers are usually spoofing: a robocaller rotates through 572 numbers so each call looks local and slips past simple blocks. Recently, 225 unwanted-call complaints were reported to the FTC for numbers showing the 572 code (65% flagged as robocalls). Blocking one number rarely helps; voicemail screening, your carrier spam filter, and the Do Not Call Registry work better.
Should I answer an unknown 572 number?
If you aren't expecting a 572 call, let it ring to voicemail. Legitimate callers leave a message, most robocallers hang up when no one picks up, and answering can mark your number as active and bring more calls.
How do I block calls from the 572 area code?
Block a single 572 number from your recent-calls list (iPhone: tap the number, then Block this Caller; Android: tap the number, then Block or report spam). To cut the volume, turn on Silence Unknown Callers on iPhone or spam protection on Android, enable spam filtering from your carrier, and register at DoNotCall.gov. Blocking the entire 572 code also stops legitimate local calls, so use it only as a last resort.
Where is area code 572?
Area code 572 covers Oklahoma City and the surrounding area in Oklahoma, spanning 131 cities with about 1,640,082 residents. It shares its area with overlay code 405.
When did area code 572 go into service?
Area code 572 went into service on May 24, 2021. It was added as an overlay of 405, so 572 numbers serve the same area that 405 already covered.
Is 572 a real area code?
Yes. 572 is an active code in the North American Numbering Plan, assigned by NANPA and in service for Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. A real code can still show up on spoofed spam calls, so treat unknown 572 calls with normal caution.
What timezone is the 572 area code in?
The 572 area code is in the Central Time (CT). Because a number can be kept when someone moves or switches to VoIP, a specific 572 caller may not be in that zone.
How do I call a 572 number from abroad?
From outside the US, dial your country's exit code, then 1 (the US country code), then 572 and the seven-digit number. From a mobile phone you can usually just enter +1 572 followed by the number and let the phone add the exit code for you.
