Methodology
Unwanted-call complaints filed from January to October 2026 that gave a caller ID number, counted by the number's area code. Caller ID can be faked. An area code shows what appeared on the screen, not where the caller really was. These are complaints people chose to file with the FCC, not a count of all unwanted calls; most people who get a robocall never report it.
