Area code 502 is an area code for Kentucky. It was one of the earliest area codes created in October 1947. It initially covered the entire state. However, it was split by 606 in 1954, then it was split by 270 in 1999,[1] and 859 in 2000.[2] 502 now covers the north central portion of Kentucky, including its state capital Frankfort, as well as other towns such as Louisville, Georgetown, West Point, Shelbyville, and Bardstown.
