Why choose a 657 virtual phone number?
Anaheim, Santa Ana, and Irvine share one number pool
657 and 714 both serve Anaheim, Santa Ana, and Irvine, so a 657 number sits right next to a 714 one in everyday use across central Orange County. Anyone in those cities sees a familiar area code, not something from out of state.
Long Beach runs on 562, not 657
Long Beach, just up the coast, has its own 562, separate from the 657 and 714 overlay in Orange County. If you're dealing with people there, a 657 number marks you clearly as Orange County.
714 came first, 657 is the overlay
714 has covered Orange County for decades, and 657 was added later to handle growth in Anaheim, Santa Ana, Irvine, and Huntington Beach. Choosing 657 puts you in the same numbering pool as people who've held a 714 line for years.
Huntington Beach and Irvine, same overlay, different scene
Huntington Beach and Irvine round out the cities sharing the 657/714 overlay with Anaheim. A 657 number reads as local whether you're coordinating a Huntington Beach meet-up or an Irvine job interview.
Riverside and Moreno Valley sit just east
Riverside and Moreno Valley are close enough to Anaheim that plenty of people split their time between the two areas for work. A 657 number keeps your Orange County identity intact even as you build ties further east.

657 overlays 714 across central Orange County, together covering Anaheim, Santa Ana, Irvine, and Huntington Beach. Long Beach, just up the coast, runs on its own 562, and codes 310, 323, and 424 are carried by many further north toward Los Angeles and its coastal suburbs.
The whole region, from Anaheim to Long Beach to Los Angeles, sits in the Pacific time zone. Because 657 is an overlay rather than a separate zone, a 657 number occupies the exact same area as a 714 one, just a newer set of digits assigned as Orange County ran out of room.
Like much of Southern California, people in and around Anaheim report unwanted sales calls and robocalls to the FTC on a regular basis. Many keep a separate number, like a 657 one, for anything they post online or hand out to strangers, and save their main line for people they already know.
