Buy a Local Phone Number – Area Code 580 (Lawton, Oklahoma)

Carved from 405 in the late 1990s, 580 serves southwestern and north‑central Oklahoma, anchored by Lawton near Fort Sill. The split relieved numbering demand in the Oklahoma City–centric 405, and the new code’s boundaries have remained largely stable, with no overlay. The territory stretches from the Red River communities through the wheat belt around Enid and into the Arbuckle and Wichita foothills, linking small manufacturing towns, ranchland, and regional hubs by I‑44 and U.S. highways.

• Defense and federal: Fort Sill’s Fires Center and Altus Air Force Base drive employment and contracting.
• Energy: Oil and natural gas from the Anadarko Basin alongside expanding wind generation on the plains.
• Agriculture & agribusiness: Wheat, cattle, and cotton; Enid’s large grain storage and related processing.
• Manufacturing & logistics: Equipment, metals, and food production; distribution along I‑35, I‑44, and key U.S. routes.
• Healthcare & education: Regional hospitals and colleges underpin the service economy and workforce training.

Lawton’s civic life reflects a military presence alongside the Comanche Nation’s cultural institutions and nearby tribal communities. The Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge and Medicine Park support tourism, field training, and conservation jobs. Cameron University and technology centers feed skilled trades, healthcare, and logistics. Cross‑border ties to North Texas via I‑44 and US‑277 shape retail flows, while county seats serve as healthcare and service hubs for surrounding rural areas.
