Great app
Love this app. It’s easy to set up and use. I really feel safer knowing that my real number isn’t being used when I have to enter a phone number online. Plus this app is transparent. They don’t hide anything…

Why choose a Chevy Chase virtual phone number?
Right on the DC line
Chevy Chase sits at the edge of Washington, DC, and many residents work or do business across that border. A 240 or 301 number keeps that DC-area presence without handing out your main line.
Close to Silver Spring
Both 240 and 301 are common in Silver Spring, just a few miles away, so a Chevy Chase number in either code reads as familiar to people across that side of Montgomery County too.
A Baltimore-area option
If you're dealing with contacts in Baltimore, Ghost also lets you pick from 410, 443, or 667, all common in that city, so you can carry a number that fits both ends of the state.
Part of a bigger commuter region
Chevy Chase is part of a corridor that stretches to Arlington and Alexandria in Virginia. A second number is useful if you're job hunting or dating across that wider DC-metro footprint without mixing it into your daily line.

About Chevy Chase

Population
10,176
Chevy Chase carries area codes 240 and 301, both common in nearby Silver Spring, and also lists 410, 443, and 667, which are common across Baltimore. Picking any of the five gives you a number that fits somewhere in the Maryland corridor from DC's edge up to Baltimore.
The area runs on Eastern time, same as the rest of Maryland, DC, and Virginia. The 240 and 301 codes overlay the same part of Montgomery County, and 410, 443, and 667 do the same for the Baltimore area, so none of them signal a different region within the state.
Residents here, like elsewhere in the DC-Maryland corridor, deal with a steady stream of unwanted calls and spam texts tied to online listings, deliveries, and scam callbacks. Keeping a second number for marketplaces, dating apps, or new contacts helps keep that traffic off your main line.
