I wonder if they came up with some of the plan to backfit the political considerations. NJ getting 201 and DC getting 202 fits with the numbering scheme, in that codes assigned to entire states (or district as is the case with DC) had a middle "0", whereas states with more than one code got numbers with a middle "1".
Was New Jersey the most populous state to only receive one code?
> Only very rarely are area codes tinkered with in this manner. The only other one I can think of is 321 for the area around Cape Canaveral.
That's awesome. It would have been a crime to pass that opportunity up.
