HOW ARE NEW AREA CODES PUT IN PLACE?
New area codes are usually implemented in one of two ways.
First, they can be implemented through a "geographic split." The geographic area using an existing area code is split into two parts, with some telephone customers continuing to be served through the existing area code while others must change to a new area code.
New area codes can also be implemented through an "area code overlay", in which the new area code covers the same geographic areas as an existing code, but with new customers in that area being assigned to the new, or overlay, area code.

Yup, that's my interp also.
I seem to remember my parents moving in Knoxville to a new place in the middle of an area code change and not having the option to keep the old area code, but just the new one (865 - Spells "VOL" on the phone
).
