About the 312 Area Code

The 312 area code covers downtown Chicago, including the Loop and the neighborhoods just around it. This is a dense market of law firms, commodities traders, and commercial real estate offices, all of which fax time-sensitive paperwork where a recorded transmission carries weight. Cook County courts and downtown agencies still take official filings by fax, and Loop medical practices fax records under HIPAA rather than emailing them. Send FAX Mail assigns a 312 number instantly with no hardware, free number selection, and plans from $12.99/mo.
