(952) Area Code Business Phone Numbers
The 952 area code covers the southern and western suburbs of Minneapolis, with Bloomington at its center. It was carved out of the old 612 in 2000 and now serves one of the busiest commercial corridors in the Upper Midwest.

Before 2000, this whole region shared the 612 code with downtown Minneapolis. The split sent the suburbs to 952, and it stuck. Today the code covers a ring of towns south and west of the city, from Edina out to Shakopee.
Bloomington is the fourth largest city in Minnesota with roughly 88,665 residents, and the biggest suburb in the Twin Cities metro[1]. It's also home to the Mall of America, which generates more than $2 billion in economic activity each year and anchors a corporate base that includes HealthPartners, Donaldson, and Toro[2].
If you're calling customers in Eden Prairie or Edina, a 952 number lands differently than a toll-free line or an out-of-state caller ID. People here answer calls from numbers they recognize, and a local prefix tells them you're nearby. Tonet lets you pick a 952 number in minutes, even if your team is working from somewhere else.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get a 952 number if my business isn't physically in Minnesota?
Yes. Tonet assigns 952 numbers to businesses regardless of where your team actually sits. If you serve customers in the southwest Twin Cities suburbs, a local number helps even if your office is elsewhere.
How long does it take to activate a 952 number?
Usually a few minutes. Sign up, pick the number, and you can start taking calls the same day. Porting an existing 952 number takes a bit longer, typically a week or two.
What does a 952 line cost?
Plans start at $10 per user per month, billed daily, with additional numbers at $2.50 each per month. No contracts.
Does the 952 code overlap with any other area codes?
No. 952 is a single geographic code covering the southwest Twin Cities suburbs. It's not currently paired with an overlay, so new numbers are still being issued directly in 952.
Can I keep my current 952 number if I switch to Tonet?
Yes. Port it in from your existing carrier. There's no fee to transfer, and your line stays active during the switch.
