Boost Mobile phone number blocks and OCNs in the US
Boost Mobile holds 3.7 million phone numbers in the United States, 0.2% of the numbers NANPA’s table of 2026-09-27 lists as allocated there, under 1 operating company number (OCN). The carrier a phone lookup names for a number is the holder of the block the number sits in, as the regulator lists it: the original allocation, not the caller, the app or the network that serves a ported number today.

Who Boost Mobile is
Boost SubscriberCo L.L.C. files with the FCC as a cellular carrier doing business as Boost Mobile, with Ting Mobile and Gen Mobile among its trade names.

The legal entities NANPA lists
Every holder in NANPA’s table that the brand map groups under Boost Mobile, by the numbers allocated to it and with its operating company number (OCN), the code the table identifies a carrier by. Names are printed as the regulator writes them. Holdings are counted in numbers, not table rows, because rows differ in size: a central office code (NPA-NXX) is 10,000 numbers and a thousands-block 1,000. A pooled code counts for its code holder only where no thousands-block row of the table covers it, so no number is counted twice.
| holder | ocn | codes | thousands-blocks | numbers | read as |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| BOOST SUBSCRIBERCO L.L.C. | 490J | 480 | 3,600 | 3,682,000 | mobile |
How a lookup reads these numbers
The North American plan leaves a number’s line type to the holder of its block, so a lookup reads it from the holder: 0.0% of Boost Mobile’s numbers read as VoIP, 100.0% as mobile, and for 0.0% the holder settles neither, so the line type stays fixed_line_or_mobile.
The reading is Spaw’s classification of each holder: the holder’s regulatory filing (in the US its FCC Form 499 filing type) and its own description, matched on the name the regulator’s table gives it. It is a lower bound, not a measurement of the numbers, and it says what a lookup answers, not what Boost Mobile is.
The area codes with most of its numbers
Boost Mobile’s entities hold numbers under 333 area codes. The share is its part of the numbers NANPA lists as allocated under each code.
| code | place | numbers | share of the code |
|---|---|---|---|
| 346 | Texas | 73,000 | 1.0% |
| 929 | New York City, NY | 71,000 | 1.0% |
| 872 | Chicago, IL | 68,000 | 2.5% |
| 667 | Maryland | 60,000 | 1.5% |
| 618 | Illinois | 44,000 | 0.6% |
| 945 | Texas | 37,000 | 1.3% |
| 943 | Georgia | 34,000 | 2.5% |
| 765 | Indiana | 32,000 | 0.5% |
| 980 | North Carolina | 32,000 | 0.7% |
| 234 | Ohio | 31,000 | 0.9% |
| 984 | North Carolina | 31,000 | 1.1% |
| 816 | Kansas City, MO | 30,000 | 0.4% |
Thousands-blocks in pooled codes
In a pooled US code NANPA assigns the code’s ten thousands-blocks one by one, often to carriers other than the code holder, and a lookup names the holder of the number’s own thousands-block where NANPA lists one. Boost Mobile’s entities hold 3,600 thousands-blocks: 689 inside codes its own entities hold, 2,223 inside codes of other brands and 688 inside codes of holders the brand map does not group, which this page counts but does not name.
| code holder’s brand | Boost Mobile’s blocks inside |
|---|---|
| Inteliquent | 704 |
| AT&T | 371 |
| T-Mobile | 287 |
| Verizon | 281 |
| Lumen | 147 |
| Bandwidth | 130 |
Other holders hold 2,797 thousands-blocks inside Boost Mobile’s codes, 168 of them holders the brand map does not group. The largest: Inteliquent 1,079, AT&T 495, Verizon 462, T-Mobile 234, Bandwidth 110, Commio 79.
Assignments by year
The codes and thousands-blocks the table still lists under Boost Mobile’s entities, by the year NANPA dates their assignment. A block returned since is no longer in the table, so earlier years read low; 99.7% of the rows carry a date. NANPA dates nothing before 2001 and no retained block.
| year | codes | thousands-blocks | numbers |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2026 | 15 | 454 | 454,000 |
| 2025 | 46 | 657 | 665,000 |
| 2024 | 33 | 809 | 812,000 |
| 2023 | 162 | 1,029 | 1.1 million |
| 2022 | 114 | 509 | 518,000 |
| 2021 | 96 | 142 | 154,000 |
| 2012 | 1 | 0 | 7,000 |
| 2003 | 1 | 0 | 2,000 |
What this page cannot say
- A regulator’s table records the original allocation of each block, never who serves a number today: a number ported away from Boost Mobile keeps its block, and a lookup still names the block’s holder for it.
- The carrier a lookup names is not the caller, the app or the subscriber. Caller ID can be spoofed, so the holder of a calling number’s block may not have carried the call at all.
- Spaw does no reverse lookup and names no subscriber: nothing here says who owns or uses any number.
- Shares are shares of the regulator’s own table, not of subscribers, lines in service or traffic.
- In a pooled US code a lookup names the holder of the number’s own thousands-block where NANPA lists one, otherwise the code holder; Canada’s table is code-level.
- The grouping under Boost Mobile is Spaw’s carrier brand map of 2026-09-24: legal entities, subsidiaries and former names under the brand the network trades as today. Networks change hands, and the map is reviewed at least yearly.
Boost Mobile and the other brand names on this page are trademarks of their owners, used only to name the networks the regulators’ tables list. Spaw is not affiliated with any of them.
