What is the closest road to you with the same number as your home area code?

[Bruce]

Area code 360 (Western WA) is a mere 551 miles away from NV 360 as the crow flies from its southernmost point (near Camas, WA).

[rlb2024]

Louisiana state highway 985 is a 1.2-mile route in West Baton Rouge Parish, and is 88 miles from my home in da 985.

[jt4]

I live in the 513 area code, but have a 614 number.

513 - OH 513 - 165 miles
614 - VA secondary route 614 in Dickenson County(?) - 181 miles

[TBKS1]

I live in area code 501.

Mississippi State Highway 501 is 233 miles as the crow flies from where I live.

[jakeroot]

I grew up in area code 253.

Closest to me is California State Route 253. At its north-eastern terminus near Ukiah, it's about 560 miles as the crow flies from Tacoma.

[CovalenceSTU]

Oregon is 503/971, the closest is WA-503 at around 70 miles but if you live in Columbia City, OR it's only 3.5 miles.

The closest 971 seems to be Oregon County Road 971 at around 200 miles (surprised there was one in the state), but the closest state routes are FM-971 in Texas (1700 miles) or PR-971 (3800 miles!!).

Any Route 856s within 1,000 miles of South Jersey appear to be small, minor roads, maybe in Virginia or the Carolinas.

My former area code before it was split in the 1990's, 609, would've featured at least two County Route 609 within the area code itself, since 6xx routes can repeat throughout the state.

[oscar]

Secondary Route 703 in Fairfax County (Shreve Road) is the closest to me; the end nearest to my house is just over 11 miles away via the most direct route.

We both live in an area covered by both 703 and 571. I have a smartphone with a 571-xxx-xxxx number, in addition to a landline with a 703-xxx-xxxx number.

Route 571s are harder to come by. The closest I could find is county route 571 in Mercer County, New Jersey, along the New Jersey Turnpike. It's about 187 miles northeast of me, and a little farther away from you. As for state highways, the closest one might be Ohio state route 571, near Dayton, about 460 miles away from me.

It's about 600 miles to I-630 in the Little Rock area.  I think that's the closest 630. (I live barely in 815, but I got my first cell phone in Aurora when I was a teenager.)

It's hard to believe that number's not used for a former routing of US 30 in Indiana or Ohio.

[therocket]

Louisiana Highway 714 at its westernmost point is about 1508 miles from where I live in Orange County.

Indiana likes to start those routes with "9", and Ohio likes to start them with "4" or "8".

[FrCorySticha]

There's a Manitoba Provincial Road 406 that's about 740 miles from me.

[CoreySamson]

Louisiana Highway 714 at its westernmost point is about 1508 miles from where I live in Orange County.

You sure that FM 714 isn't closer than LA 714?

[6a]

614/380 here. I'm guessing one of the bazillion VA 614 versions is closest. Maryland has one as well, but Virginia probably has one closer. OH 380 is much closer, with one end being in Xenia, less than an hour away.

[cockroachking]

Closest 845 is unsigned MD-845, while the closest signed route is PA-845.

[Konza]

From my high desert perch in southeast Arizona, it appears that WA 520 in the Seattle area is minutes closer to me than is IN 520 near one of my favorite places on this planet, the dunes at the southeast corner of America's Great Lake

[mgk920]

I grew up in area code 253.

Closest to me is California State Route 253. At its north-eastern terminus near Ukiah, it's about 560 miles as the crow flies from Tacoma.

And WI 253 is a lot farther away than that.  It is the former US 53 through Spooner, WI.

As for my home 920?  I'm not sure if there even is a highway numbered '920' anywhere in the USA.

Texas has an FM 920 west of Fort Worth.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Farm_to_Market_Roads_in_Texas_(900%E2%80%93999)

I think KY 513 is closer to Cincinnati that OH 513.

[baugh17]

NY 315...which also happens to reside in the 315 area code.

[74/171FAN]

Well living in the 717/223 area code leads to MD 223 and MD 717, which are quite close to each other along MD 4.
