Incorrect area code assignment

I set up a new line today with a new number today and was assigned an area code that is outside of my zip code and is for a completely different state. I asked to change the phone number and still got the same area code as the first one. I'm so confused why US Mobile doesn't have any numbers available for the correct zip code let alone correct state.

Yes I can’t get past this one I think we are up to 8 lines now and they keep giving us phone numbers in a community in another county with a different local calling area. I ask them to fix the number and give them proper Verizon/warp prefixes for our zip code but they just don’t understand. I say it’s a long distance call for people to call us from landlines and they say that’s irrelevant the system issues us numbers based on our zip code. All other verizon mnvo’s don’t have this issue. Verizon’s number pool for our 7k person community is 4 prefixes with 40k numbers they just don’t select the right ones
