213 numbers for University Park businesses

University Park is the neighborhood around the University of Southern California, south of downtown. USC opened its doors on October 6, 1880, to 53 students.

The Shrine Auditorium on Jefferson Boulevard opened in 1926 with more than 6,700 seats, the largest theatre in the United States at the time, and has hosted the Academy Awards, the Grammys and the Emmys. Students, parents and event crowds keep the restaurants, landlords and service businesses around them busy.

Numbers that fit

Palindromes such as 2112 or 4334 are easy to check against a flyer or a lease, which helps when a parent or student copies the number down in a hurry.

No 213 number belongs to a particular neighborhood. Since the 2017 overlay, 213 numbers go to lines across the whole 213 and 323 area, not just downtown, and a 213 number on a mobile phone works anywhere.
