That might be from your phone number getting leaked to some spam companies over the course of being in school. There's always those random events or emails or whatever in college where you inadvertently put your contact info down and I'm sure these spammers try their hardest to get ahold of student phone numbers and other lucrative metadata.
At least where I live now its nowhere near my home or my old college, dozens of states and several time zones away, and I just don't get any spam from these local area codes over here. I just scrolled over my last few months of call logs to see if this was true, and all the spam was from my phone number's area code from back where I grew up or an adjacent area code to that one somewhere near my home city. It's all voicemails and occasional texts asking me to sell a specific house I don't own (sometimes the exact address changes). Maybe I lucked out, who knows.
