A code with Motor City pride
Detroiters know their area code, and plenty of them wear it.
313 has belonged to Detroit since 1947 and today covers the city along with Dearborn and Redford. It stands for the city's comeback, from Corktown to downtown along Woodward Avenue. A 313 number on caller ID tells people you are from here, or at least that you took the trouble to show up. In a city that values loyalty, that goes a long way.
