Mountain Time Zone
The Mountain Time Zone of North America keeps time by subtracting seven hours from Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) when standard time ( UTC−07:00) is in effect, and by subtracting six hours during daylight saving time ( UTC−06:00). The clock time in this zone is based on the mean solar time at the 105th meridian west of the Greenwich Observatory. In the United States, the exact specification for the location of time zones and the dividing lines between zones is set forth in the Code of Federal Regulations at 49 CFR 71. In the United States, Canada, and Mexico, this time zone is generically called Mountain Time (MT). Specifically, it is Mountain Standard Time (MST) when observing standard time, and Mountain Daylight Time (MDT) when observing daylight saving time. The term refers to the Rocky Mountains, which range from British Columbia to New Mexico. In Mexico, this time zone is known as the or ('Pacific Zone'). In the United States and Canada, the Mountain Time Z ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Area Code 928
Area code 928 is a telephone area code in the North American Numbering Plan for the U.S. state of Arizona. The numbering plan area comprises the northern, eastern, and western portions of the state. It includes Beaver Dam, the Grand Canyon, Flagstaff, Holbrook, Lake Havasu City, Littlefield, Kingman, Prescott, Sedona, Wickenburg, Winslow and Yuma, and also serves most of Greenlee County, some areas on the western and northern fringes of the Phoenix metropolitan area, such as Lake Pleasant Regional Park in Peoria, and the Arizona portion of the Navajo Nation. The numbering plan area was created in a split of area code 520 on June 23, 2001, due mainly to population gains in Tucson, Yuma, and Flagstaff. Prior to October 2021, area code 928 had telephone numbers assigned for the central office code 988. In 2020, ''988'' was designated nationwide as a dialing code for the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, which created a conflict for exchanges that permit seve ...

Area Code 520
Area code 520 is a telephone area code in the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) for the U.S. state of Arizona. The numbering plan area comprises Tucson and most of the southeastern part of the state. Area code 520 was created in a split of area code 602 on March 19, 1995. Previously, 602 had been the sole area code for the entire state of Arizona since the introduction of area codes in 1947. Arizona's rapid growth in demand for telecommunication services during the second half of the 20th century, and the proliferation of mobile and data communication services in the 1990s required additional numbering resources. The numbering plan area originally comprised all of the state outside the Phoenix metropolitan area, but areas outside of southeastern Arizona were split again in 2001 to form area code 928 in 2001. History Area code 602 was the only area code for Arizona from the establishment of a nationwide telephone numbering plan in 1947. By the late 1980s, the state needed a sec ...

Area Code 480
__NOTOC__ Year 480 ( CDLXXX) was a leap year starting on Tuesday of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Basilius without colleague (or, less frequently, year 1233 ''Ab urbe condita''). The denomination 480 for this year has been used since the early medieval period, when the Anno Domini calendar era became the prevalent method in Europe for naming years.

Area Code 602
Area codes 602, 480, and 623 are telephone area codes in the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) for most of the Phoenix metropolitan area in the U.S. state of Arizona. Area code 602 is the oldest area code in Arizona, and was assigned in 1947 for the entire state. Under pressure from population growth and new telecommunications services, the numbering plan area (NPA) was reduced twice in five years in the 1990s. In 1995, the state outside metropolitan Phoenix was split off with area code 520. In 1999, a second split created two new area codes: 480 in the East Valley and 623 in the West Valley. Metro Phoenix continued to be a single rate center after the split, so that calls between the three area codes were generally local calls. By the early 2020s, NPAs 480 and 602 were facing exhaustion within the decade, but 623 continued to have hundreds of unassigned central office codes and was not expected to exhaust for the foreseeable future. As a result, in 2021, the Arizona C ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Maricopa, Arizona
Maricopa is a city in the Gila River Valley in Pinal County, Arizona, United States. With 66,290 residents as of 2022, Maricopa is the largest incorporated municipality in Pinal County. History Maricopa has had three locations over the years: Maricopa Wells, Arizona, Maricopa Wells, Maricopaville and Maricopa Junction; the latter gradually became known as Maricopa. It started as an oasis around a series of watering holes eight miles north of present-day Maricopa, and about a mile west of Pima Butte. European-American traders and travelers called it Maricopa Wells. Several of Arizona's rivers, the Gila, Santa Cruz, Vekol and Santa Rosa provided this oasis in the desert with an ample supply of water during this period of time. During the late 1800s, Maricopa Wells was one of the most important relay stations along the San Antonio-San Diego Mail Line and the later more famous Butterfield Overland Mail in New Mexico Territory#3rd Division, Butterfield Overland Mail Route.
