Just a little clarification on USA local calling:
Local calls are generally free for residential customers, unless they are on a increasingly rare "measured local service". However, business customers almost always pay for local calls on a measured basis.

Generally speaking, Yes. The usual dial plan in the USA is as follows:
NXX-XXXX (Free Local Call to number in same Area Code) NXX-NXX-XXXX (Free Local Call to number in different Area Code) 1-NXX-XXXX (Toll Call to number in same Area Code) 1-NXX-NXX-XXXX (Toll Call to number in different Area Code) 1-800-NXX-XXXX (Toll Free Call) 1-855-NXX-XXXX (Toll Free Call) 1-866-NXX-XXXX (Toll Free Call) 1-877-NXX-XXXX (Toll Free Call) 1-888-NXX-XXXX (Toll Free Call)
Yes, in most places in the USA local calls are totally free, no per min charge.
Some parts of the USA have "Local Toll Calls", that is calls that are dialed as NXX-XXXX that are not free, but have a very small per min cost. Los Angels is one of these places I think.

prefix the CITY/AREA code with "1" in order To successfully make a call to other USA destinations?
