It will cover all of Mobile, Baldwin, and Washington Counties, and parts of six other counties, including the communities of Brewton, Evergreen, Monroeville, Grove hill, Jackson and Chatom. It was effective June 18th, but through Jan 6, 2002 you will be able to dial the 334 and you will connected, but after that you will have to dial the 251. (I just received my phone bill and remembered the insert in the bill.) You can see exactly what prefixes it covered by visiting http://www.bellsouth.com/areacode Keitha in Calhoun Co., AL
