The Rochester area will switch from 716 to 385 as the new area code under the North American Numbering Plan Administration. The change covers Monroe, Ontario, Orleans, Genesee, Wyoming, Yates, Livingston, Allegany, Erie, Niagara, Cattaraugus and Chautauqua counties and the Tona-wasda Springs Indian reservations will keep 716.
