Dayton itself is covered by 937, the long-standing area code for the city and much of the surrounding Miami Valley. 326 is a newer overlay code added to the same region as 937 numbers ran low, so both codes now serve Dayton residents. Head south toward Cincinnati and you're in 513 territory instead.
