Austin residential proxies: buy city-level IPs

How do I target Austin in the proxy username?

You pick Austin by adding city-austin (and state-tx) to the username you already use. No other endpoint, no extra fee.

• USERNAME-country-us-state-tx-city-austin: rotating Austin IPs, a new connection usually gets a different one.
• USERNAME-country-us-state-tx-city-austin-zip-78744: narrows to ZIP 78744, one of 32 ZIP areas mostly inside the city.
• USERNAME-country-us-state-tx-city-austin-asn-20115: asks for an IP on Spectrum's network (AS20115) when one is online in Austin.
• USERNAME-country-us-state-tx-city-austin-session-aust01-ttl-20: keeps one Austin 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 Austin?

Home internet in Austin is led by Spectrum (Charter), which the FCC map shows at 93% of 551,183 residential units, followed by AT&T (75%), Google Fiber (43%) and Astound (21%) (December 2025 data). 68% of Austin homes can order fiber and 92% cable, while licensed fixed wireless covers 80%. Fixed-wireless home internet is offered by Verizon 5G Home (71%) and T-Mobile Home Internet (67%).

What this means for an Austin proxy: a residential exit IP belongs to whichever home network the device uses, so Spectrum addresses are the most common kind in the city, but not the only one. Look up the ASN of the exit IP you get, and use asn- targeting when a test must run on one provider.

What local details matter when you test from Austin?

With 993,588 residents in 2024, Austin ranks 13 among the 181 US cities over 150,000 on this site; the population grew 3.3% since 2020. It anchors or belongs to the Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos, TX metro area (2.55 million people).

For tests that read local details, expect area codes 512 and 737, Central Time and ZIP codes such as 78744, 78724 and 78730. A proxy changes the IP only: set the time zone America/Chicago and the language in your browser or tool yourself. Prices shown to Texas shoppers usually exclude sales tax: the state rate is 6.25%, and state plus average local rates come to 8.2% (Tax Foundation, July 2026). Texas has a consumer privacy law in force, the TDPSA (since July 1, 2024).
