Where Montana's area code came from

In 1947, 406 counted among the original area codes, and NANPA shows nothing split off from 406.

Will Montana add another area code?

Years away still: NANPA projects the 406 numbers will run out in 2033. Among the 51 states and DC that have a forecast, that is the 18th soonest.
