The 602 area code is Phoenix

Where is the 602 area code?

The 602 area code is a United States telephone area code covering Phoenix, AZ. Numbers that start with 602 are physically tied to this region, and calls to or from 602 run on Mountain Time — worth remembering before you dial, so you don't catch someone at the wrong hour.

Is a call from 602 spam?

Not by itself. 602 is a legitimate geographic area code for Phoenix — plenty of real people and businesses have 602 numbers. But scammers often spoof local area codes so an unknown call looks familiar and you're more likely to pick up. If a 602 number you don't recognize calls, let it go to voicemail and check who left a message before calling back.
