Or is this something of a hack on the tape to allow for call costings into Mexico exchanges? Given that Mexico's system is separate from the NANP, and given the population growth, is it not likely that Mexico City, or perhaps other places, could have situations which require yet a new digit (say, eight digit Mexico City local numbers, like France and Tokyo were expanded). That could wreck the idea of having 52X area codes soon after they get started if that were the case. > I have not included the 82? series of area codes which include many > more Mexico exchanges, as well as the non-diable locations in the > NANP.

There are announced plans to split with permissive dialing 4 Oct 93, and mandatory dial likely Jan 94. No official announcement of what the split code will be; 210 is a good bet, though.
