How do I target Jersey City in the proxy username?
Write the city into the proxy username. For Jersey City, the segment is city-jersey_city, and it works best with the state segment state-nj in front of it.
USERNAME-country-us-state-nj-city-jersey_city: rotating Jersey City IPs, a new connection usually gets a different one.USERNAME-country-us-state-nj-city-jersey_city-zip-07305: narrows to ZIP 07305, one of 7 ZIP areas mostly inside the city.USERNAME-country-us-state-nj-city-jersey_city-asn-7922: asks for an IP on Xfinity's network (AS7922) when one is online in Jersey City.USERNAME-country-us-state-nj-city-jersey_city-session-jers01-ttl-20: keeps one Jersey City 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. 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 Jersey City?
Home internet in Jersey City is led by Xfinity (Comcast), which the FCC map shows at 98% of 139,140 residential units, followed by Verizon Fios (93%) (December 2025 data). 84% of Jersey City homes can order fiber and 97% cable, while licensed fixed wireless covers 96%. Fixed-wireless home internet is offered by T-Mobile Home Internet (87%) and AT&T Internet Air (64%).
What this means for a Jersey City proxy: a residential exit IP belongs to whichever home network the device uses, so Xfinity 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 else do people ask about Jersey City proxies?
How do I target Xfinity in Jersey City?
Add the provider's network number: USERNAME-country-us-state-nj-city-jersey_city-asn-7922 asks for Xfinity (AS7922). Per the FCC map, Xfinity serves 98% of Jersey City 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 Jersey City proxy server and a residential proxy?
A free Jersey City 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 Jersey City, NJ, with username and password, a public acceptable use policy and support by email. The Jersey City segment is country-us-state-nj-city-jersey_city.
How many Jersey City IPs does MetroProxies have?
MetroProxies does not publish IP counts per city. The number of residential devices online in Jersey City 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 Jersey City IP for several minutes?
Add a session ID and a time to live to the username: USERNAME-country-us-state-nj-city-jersey_city-session-jers01-ttl-20 keeps one Jersey City 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 Jersey City IP.
What phone area code should a Jersey City test use?
Jersey City numbers use 201 and 551; these codes overlay the same area, so any of them is local (NANPA, read 2026-10-18). A proxy does not give you a phone number: it only changes the IP address of your web requests.
