How do I target Anchorage in the proxy username?
You pick Anchorage by adding city-anchorage (and state-ak) to the username you already use. No other endpoint, no extra fee.
USERNAME-country-us-state-ak-city-anchorage: rotating Anchorage IPs, a new connection usually gets a different one.USERNAME-country-us-state-ak-city-anchorage-zip-99567: narrows to ZIP 99567, one of 17 ZIP areas mostly inside the city.USERNAME-country-us-state-ak-city-anchorage-asn-8047: asks for an IP on GCI's network (AS8047) when one is online in Anchorage.USERNAME-country-us-state-ak-city-anchorage-session-anch01-ttl-20: keeps one Anchorage IP for up to 20 minutes; it can change earlier if the home device goes offline.
City availability varies; the checkout shows what is online. Test with one request before you script a run, and widen to the state if a filter is too narrow. Details: city-level targeting.
Which internet providers serve homes in Anchorage?
Anchorage counts 136,150 residential units in the FCC National Broadband Map (December 2025 filing). Wired home internet there comes mainly from GCI (96%), by share of units covered. By technology, fiber covers 6% of addresses, cable 96%.
These shares describe the market, not our pool. The network behind a given Anchorage exit depends on which residential device is online, so check the IP's ASN (AS8047 is GCI) before you compare results between runs.
What local details matter when you test from Anchorage?
Anchorage had 289,600 residents on July 1, 2024 (−0.6% since April 2020), per the Census Bureau's Vintage 2024 estimates. It anchors or belongs to the Anchorage, AK metro area (407,213 people).
Anchorage uses Alaska Time (America/Anchorage), the 907 area code and 17 ZIP areas. Match those in your test setup; the proxy only sets where the IP is. Prices shown to Alaska shoppers usually exclude sales tax: the state rate is 0%, and state plus average local rates come to 1.82% (Tax Foundation, July 2026). Alaska had no comprehensive consumer privacy law in force in October 2026.

What else do people ask about Anchorage proxies?
How do I target GCI in Anchorage?
Add the provider's network number: USERNAME-country-us-state-ak-city-anchorage-asn-8047 asks for GCI (AS8047). Per the FCC map, GCI serves 96% of Anchorage homes. Combining city and ASN narrows the pool, so test with one request first; ASN targeting has no extra cost.
What is the difference between a free Anchorage proxy server and a residential proxy?
A free Anchorage proxy server from a public list is usually a shared data-center or open machine, with no owner you can contact and no rules of use. A MetroProxies residential proxy routes through a home connection in Anchorage, AK, with username and password, a public acceptable use policy and support by email. The Anchorage segment is country-us-state-ak-city-anchorage.
How many Anchorage IPs does MetroProxies have?
MetroProxies does not publish IP counts per city. The number of residential devices online in Anchorage changes through the day. City availability varies; the checkout shows what is online. Start with the 1 GB plan ($1.50) to test your own targets before you buy volume.
Can I keep the same Anchorage IP for several minutes?
Add a session ID and a time to live to the username: USERNAME-country-us-state-ak-city-anchorage-session-anch01-ttl-20 keeps one Anchorage exit for up to 20 minutes. Sessions last up to 30 minutes; the IP can change earlier if the residential device goes offline. Use a new session ID to get a new Anchorage IP.
What phone area code should an Anchorage test use?
Anchorage numbers use area code 907 (NANPA, read 2026-10-18). A proxy does not give you a phone number: it only changes the IP address of your web requests.
Can I target a ZIP code inside Anchorage?
Any five-digit ZIP code can go in the zip- segment. 17 ZIP Code Tabulation Areas lie mostly inside Anchorage, among them 99567, 99587, 99577 and 99540 (2020 Census relationship file). A small ZIP has fewer homes online at once, so widen to the city if a ZIP returns errors.
