How do I target Charleston in the proxy username?
Write the city into the proxy username. For Charleston, the segment is city-charleston, and it works best with the state segment state-sc in front of it.
USERNAME-country-us-state-sc-city-charleston: rotating Charleston IPs, a new connection usually gets a different one.USERNAME-country-us-state-sc-city-charleston-zip-29492: narrows to ZIP 29492, one of 8 ZIP areas mostly inside the city.USERNAME-country-us-state-sc-city-charleston-asn-7922: asks for an IP on Xfinity's network (AS7922) when one is online in Charleston.USERNAME-country-us-state-sc-city-charleston-session-char01-ttl-15: keeps one Charleston IP for up to 15 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.

What else do people ask about Charleston proxies?
Does a Charleston IP set the local time on my tool?
No. The proxy changes the IP address that websites see, nothing else. Charleston uses Eastern Time (UTC−5, UTC−4 in summer); set America/New_York and an en-US locale in your browser or test runner if the page you check reads them.
Which Charleston ZIP codes can I request?
Any five-digit ZIP code can go in the zip- segment. 8 ZIP Code Tabulation Areas lie mostly inside Charleston, among them 29492, 29412, 29407 and 29403 (2020 Census relationship file). A small ZIP has fewer homes online at once, so widen to the city if a ZIP returns errors.
Is a Charleston proxy server the same as a residential proxy?
Not always. "Charleston proxy server" means any proxy with a Charleston IP; public free lists mostly show shared data-center or open servers that change often. A residential proxy sends your request through a home connection in Charleston, so sites see a local household address. With MetroProxies you write country-us-state-sc-city-charleston in the username; plans start at $1.50.
Does South Carolina law change how I can use a Charleston proxy?
MetroProxies does not give legal advice. A proxy changes where requests come from, not which rules apply to you. South Carolina has no comprehensive consumer privacy law in force, and each site's terms still apply. Collect only public data and follow the acceptable use policy.
Can I get a Charleston IP from one internet provider?
Add the provider's network number: USERNAME-country-us-state-sc-city-charleston-asn-7922 asks for Xfinity (AS7922). Per the FCC map, Xfinity serves 92% of Charleston homes. Combining city and ASN narrows the pool, so test with one request first; ASN targeting has no extra cost.
How do I hold one Charleston IP during a session?
Add a session ID and a time to live to the username: USERNAME-country-us-state-sc-city-charleston-session-char01-ttl-15 keeps one Charleston exit for up to 15 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 Charleston IP.
