Connect
By phone
Most telephone numbers in Gilbertsville consist of 1 270 plus a seven-digit number, but the entire Purchase area is now served by an overlay complex of two area codes, with 1 364 as the second. A local or in-state telephone call now requires all 10 digits of the local number be dialed (omitting just the leading 1 from a local landline call).
Signage on many established businesses may still display the original seven-digit numbers; dial 270 before these if no area code is indicated.
