Is 628 actually the area code for SF? Or people don’t know it and won’t answer a phone number that starts with this area code?

It’s possible that it’s super new. San Jose ran out of 408 so they started using 669. The SF area code, 415, might be on its last legs and they just opened this new one. It will eventually become known
