How do I target Joliet in the proxy username?
Joliet targeting is a username setting, not a separate product: keep your password, put state-il-city-joliet after the country, and connect to gw.metroproxies.com.
USERNAME-country-us-state-il-city-joliet: rotating Joliet IPs, a new connection usually gets a different one.USERNAME-country-us-state-il-city-joliet-zip-60436: narrows to ZIP 60436, one of 4 ZIP areas mostly inside the city.USERNAME-country-us-state-il-city-joliet-asn-7922: asks for an IP on Xfinity's network (AS7922) when one is online in Joliet.USERNAME-country-us-state-il-city-joliet-session-joli01-ttl-20: keeps one Joliet 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. When Joliet has no matching IP online, widen to state-il and retry later. See how city targeting works.
Which internet providers serve homes in Joliet?
Home internet in Joliet is led by Xfinity (Comcast), which the FCC map shows at 100% of 55,447 residential units, followed by AT&T (94%) (December 2025 data). 21% of Joliet homes can order fiber and 100% cable, while licensed fixed wireless covers 93%. Fixed-wireless home internet is offered by T-Mobile Home Internet (78%) and Verizon 5G Home (41%).
What this means for a Joliet 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 Joliet proxies?
How do I target Xfinity in Joliet?
Add the provider's network number: USERNAME-country-us-state-il-city-joliet-asn-7922 asks for Xfinity (AS7922). Per the FCC map, Xfinity serves 100% of Joliet 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 Joliet proxy server and a residential proxy?
A free Joliet 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 Joliet, IL, with username and password, a public acceptable use policy and support by email. The Joliet segment is country-us-state-il-city-joliet.
How many Joliet IPs does MetroProxies have?
MetroProxies does not publish IP counts per city. The number of residential devices online in Joliet 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 Joliet IP for several minutes?
Add a session ID and a time to live to the username: USERNAME-country-us-state-il-city-joliet-session-joli01-ttl-20 keeps one Joliet 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 Joliet IP.
What phone area code should a Joliet test use?
Joliet numbers use 779 and 815; 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.
Can I target a ZIP code inside Joliet?
Any five-digit ZIP code can go in the zip- segment. 4 ZIP Code Tabulation Areas lie mostly inside Joliet, among them 60436, 60431, 60435 and 60432 (2020 Census relationship file). A small ZIP has fewer homes online at once, so widen to the city if a ZIP returns errors.
