It also includes the southern and eastern tips of Bradford County, the west edge of northern Putnam County, the southwestern part of Clay County, the northeast and north central parts of Pasco county, and the Steinhatchee and Tennile communities in southern Taylor County. Prior to October 2021, area code 352 had telephone numbers assigned for the central office code 988.

This area code was therefore scheduled to transition to ten-digit dialing by October 24, 2021. Per March 2023 projections, 352 is expected to exhaust its central office code pool in late 2027. requiring mitigation action by the numbering administrators.
