Shepherd follows Central Time. Because the Houston metro uses an overlay system for its four area codes, these numbers operate within the same geographic footprint.
Local residents report that their personal lines are regularly targeted by automated callers and sales pitches. Many choose to use a secondary number to filter these unwanted communications away from their primary device.
