Area Code 504

New Orleans may not be the capital of Louisiana, but it is the largest city in the state. Nicknamed “The Big Easy,” New Orleans has a population of 391,000 people and covers 349 square miles on the Gulf of Mexico. It’s located in the Orleans Parish in the southeastern part of the state, and area code 504 includes the parishes of St. Bernard, Plaquemines, and most of Jefferson as well. The city is the 12th largest in the southern US and sits 95 miles from Baton Rouge, 206 miles from Jackson, and 389 miles from Houston.

New Orleans was founded by the French Trading Company in 1718 and was a French colony until the Louisiana Purchase was completed and the United States took control of the land. The city quickly gained importance in the region, and experienced its economic peak in the 19th century when the slave trade propped up their economy. An economic decline followed after the Civil War and has continued to present day, where New Orleans still struggles to keep up with the other southern powerhouses in the area.

Recently, the biggest turning point in the city’s history was Hurricane Katrina, which hit New Orleans in 2005. Afterward, the population dropped from 1.1 million people to around 300,000, and the Orleans Parish went from the largest to the third largest in the state.


New Orleans is home to one Fortune 500 company. Entergy, an electric company, was ranked #263 on the 2017 list. Other major players in area code 504 are the New Orlean Port, which is one of the biggest in the world, and the large oil and petroleum industry that drills off the coast. Education is another important part of the city’s economy, and the New Orleans area code is home to 11 colleges and universities.

The transportation and tourism industries also help diversify the economy and keep it afloat, along with US defense. New Orleans is home to the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command and Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base New Orleans. The five biggest employers in area code 504 are the Ochsner Health System, Tulane University, Acme Truck Line, Al Copeland Investments, and Vinson Guard Services.

The unemployment rate in New Orleans is 6.8%, which is slightly higher than the US average of 5.2%, but job growth is expected at 35% in the upcoming next decade. 17% of the population in area code 504 makes over $100,000 a year, and the average household income across the city is $34,000. The top three occupations for residents in the New Orleans area code are health care and social assistance, accommodation, food services, and educational services.

New Orleans was named as one of “America’s Coolest Cities in 2017” by Forbes, and the same publication also chose it as one of the “Best Cities for Singles.” The biggest attraction in the New Orleans area code is the annual Mardi Gras celebration, but other events in the city also include the Tennessee Williams New Orleans Literary Festival, the French Quarter Festival, and the New Orleans Film Festival.
