Area code 201 and overlay area code 551 serve a portion of northern New Jersey, including Jersey City, Hackensack, Bayonne, and Hoboken.

In the original area code assignments in 1947, all of New Jersey was 201. In 1958, roughly the southern half of the state split into area code 609. That was it until 1991, when 201 split again for the new 908 area code. In 1997, 201 split again, with 973 as the new code, and 908 split with 732. In 1999, 609 split with 856. Then, in 2001, northern New Jersey got three overlays: 201/551, 732/848, and 973/862.
