North American area code 323 is a California telephone area code which covers, roughly, the area of central Los Angeles (including Hollywood but excluding Downtown Los Angeles and its immediately adjoining neighborhoods such as Koreatown, Echo Park, and Chinatown). 323 also includes several gateway cities of the region, including Bell and Huntington Park. The territory now covered by 323 was covered by area code 213 until 323 was created as an area code split on June 13, 1998.

Famous quotes containing the words area and/or code:
“Prosperous farmers mean more employment, more prosperity for the workers and the business men of ... every industrial area in the whole country.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
“Hollywood keeps before its child audiences a string of glorified young heroes, everyone of whom is an unhesitating and violent Anarchist. His one answer to everything that annoys him or disparages his country or his parents or his young lady or his personal code of manly conduct is to give the offender a “sock” in the jaw.... My observation leads me to believe that it is not the virtuous people who are good at socking jaws.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
