From its founding in 1847, Atlanta has had a penchant for frequent street renamings, even in the central business district, usually to honor the recently deceased.As early as 1903 (see section below), there were concerns about the confusion this caused, as "more than 225 streets of Atlanta have had from two to eight names" in the first decades of the city.
The state operated with two area codes until May 3, 1992, when area code 706 was created for the two separate areas outside of the metro Atlanta area. Due to complaints from exurban residents who were to be put in 706, they were moved back into 404, which makes every new area code added to the metro area run out of numbers sooner.
As a result, north Georgia telephone subscribers were forced to dial the full ten-digit number (area code plus number). By late 1991, the need for a new area code could no longer be staved off. On May 3, 1992, nearly all of the old 404 territory outside of metro Atlanta was split off with area code 706. [2]

The entire metro Atlanta region with area codes 404, 770, 678, 470, and 943 is a local calling area, one of the largest in the United States, without long-distance charges for calls between area codes. All calls in the area are dialed with ten digits.
This makes the fastest-dialing area code 212 (5 total clicks), followed by 312 and 213 (6 clicks). The area code 605 is much slower than these, at 21 clicks. Many large US cities generally had fast-dialing area codes with the middle digit 1. Touch-tone dialing, introduced later, eliminated the wait.
