No.
Area numbers - The first three numbers originally represented the state in which a person first applied for a Social Security card. Numbers started in the northeast and moved westward. This meant that people on the east coast had the lowest numbers and those on the west coast had the highest. Since 1972, the SSA has assigned numbers and issued cards based on the ZIP code in the mailing address provided on the original application form. Since the applicant's mailing address doesn't have to be the same as his residence, his area number doesn't necessarily represent the state in which he resides. For many of us who received our SSNs as infants, the area number indicates the state we were born in.

They're based on the state you are in when you get the number.
600 and 601 are set aside for Arizona (Arizona also has some other numbers.)
602-626 are set aside for California (which also has some other numbers.)
If yours starts with 0, you're from the Northeast.
If it starts with 1, you're from New York or Pennsylvania.

mine starts with a 2. Michigan folks start with a 3. It depends on where you get your social security card from.
