Suella,

Last I knew, eastern Washington, where Walla Walla is located, has no
current plans to change their area code from (509)

Western Washington used to be (206) for all areas. Last year areas not
near Seattle changed to (360)

Now Seattle neighbors have two new area codes; (253) & (425) but Seattle
and Seward Park (which is part of Seattle) is still (206)

Happy to help anytime,

John
