Ranking every area code. Starting off, we have 229, which is only encompassing southwestern Georgia, which encompasses Albany. F-tier. If you have ever been to that part of Georgia, God, all the rest of the motion in Georgia is elsewhere. If you live in the 229, I would heavily consider moving to Savannah or Atlanta. You cannot pay me to live here. Next, we have the 231, which is Northwestern Lower Michigan. I'm going to be giving this a... D-tier just because there's no industry, no big cities. Next, we have 234, which is overlaid with 330. We're going to be putting this in the C-tier category because there is Akron there. This part of Ohio actually has a tad bit of motion. Just a tad. Next, we have 235, which is overlaid with the 573. And for this, I'm actually going to be giving it B-tier just because this is the good part of Missouri, which is far enough from St. Louis where you're not going to right then and there, you can get a ton of land. It's a nice Zion region where the weather is not too hot, not too cold, not too wet, not too dry. And the land there is cheap enough to where you can get tons and tons of it at a time. Next, we have Fort Myers, 239. Fort Myers. I think this is our first Floridian and I'm going to be giving Fort Myers actually a C. The reason being is because there is no Orlando. There's no Disney World. This isn't Miami. This is the one part of Florida where there is nothing. However, you still have nice weather. You still have a ton of safe communities. So we're going to be putting that in C-tier. And lastly, we have the 248, which is overlaid with the 947. And we're honestly going to be putting this in D-tier. This area code has absolutely nothing redeeming about it. It's right next to Detroit. All it has is townships and lakes, nothing more. This is the place you move to when you get out of Detroit, but you don't want to leave Michigan and you don't want to leave your family that's still in Detroit because they're too hood to get out of there. So I don't know why you'd want this. Follow to see how I rank your area code.
