How do I target Bakersfield in the proxy username?
Bakersfield targeting is a username setting, not a separate product: keep your password, put state-ca-city-bakersfield after the country, and connect to gw.metroproxies.com.
USERNAME-country-us-state-ca-city-bakersfield: rotating Bakersfield IPs, a new connection usually gets a different one.USERNAME-country-us-state-ca-city-bakersfield-zip-93312: narrows to ZIP 93312, one of 5 ZIP areas mostly inside the city.USERNAME-country-us-state-ca-city-bakersfield-asn-20115: asks for an IP on Spectrum's network (AS20115) when one is online in Bakersfield.USERNAME-country-us-state-ca-city-bakersfield-session-bake01-ttl-10: keeps one Bakersfield IP for up to 10 minutes; it can change earlier if the home device goes offline.
City availability varies; the checkout shows what is online. If a narrow request returns errors, drop the ZIP or ASN segment first, then the city. The full format is on the city targeting page.
Which internet providers serve homes in Bakersfield?

What else do people ask about Bakersfield proxies?
What is the difference between a free Bakersfield proxy server and a residential proxy?
A free Bakersfield 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 Bakersfield, CA, with username and password, a public acceptable use policy and support by email. The Bakersfield segment is country-us-state-ca-city-bakersfield.
Can I keep the same Bakersfield IP for several minutes?
Add a session ID and a time to live to the username: USERNAME-country-us-state-ca-city-bakersfield-session-bake01-ttl-10 keeps one Bakersfield exit for up to 10 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 Bakersfield IP.
Can I target a ZIP code inside Bakersfield?
Any five-digit ZIP code can go in the zip- segment. 5 ZIP Code Tabulation Areas lie mostly inside Bakersfield, among them 93312, 93309, 93304 and 93301 (2020 Census relationship file). A small ZIP has fewer homes online at once, so widen to the city if a ZIP returns errors.
How do I target Spectrum in Bakersfield?
Add the provider's network number: USERNAME-country-us-state-ca-city-bakersfield-asn-20115 asks for Spectrum (AS20115). Per the FCC map, Spectrum serves 93% of Bakersfield homes. Combining city and ASN narrows the pool, so test with one request first; ASN targeting has no extra cost.
How many Bakersfield IPs does MetroProxies have?
MetroProxies does not publish IP counts per city. The number of residential devices online in Bakersfield 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.
Will a Bakersfield proxy change my browser's time zone?
No. The proxy changes the IP address that websites see, nothing else. Bakersfield uses Pacific Time (UTC−8, UTC−7 in summer); set America/Los_Angeles and an en-US locale in your browser or test runner if the page you check reads them.
