Vermont is served by a single area code, 802, which covers the entire state. Burlington, on Lake Champlain, anchors the directory's records here. The city sits along the eastern shore of the lake with a downtown that climbs gradually from the waterfront, organized around the University of Vermont's main campus, a substantial healthcare sector centered on the UVM Medical Center, and a long-running role as the regional commercial center for the broader Champlain Valley. The 802 footprint extends through Montpelier (the state capital), Rutland, Brattleboro, the Northeast Kingdom, and the rest of the state's communities.
Because 802 covers Vermont entirely, the directory's records associated with 802 numbers do not surface a recurring set of out-of-state cities through the routine cross-linkage patterns that dominate larger codes. Where other-place names do appear, they reflect the same kinds of public-record dynamics seen elsewhere — numbers porting between carriers, addresses tied to multiple residences, and prior registrations surfacing alongside current ones. The directory currently documents 332 distinct prefixes within 802 in detail, a working subset of the prefix population the code actually carries.
The most striking demographic feature of Burlington is its young median age: at the mid-twenties, the city sits dramatically below the US figure, a pattern shaped heavily by the substantial student population at the University of Vermont and the surrounding small colleges. Median household income runs below the national reading, home values come in well above the US median in line with broader New England pricing, and population is modest in absolute terms — Burlington is the largest city in Vermont but small in the broader US frame.
