Write the city into the proxy username. For Knoxville, the segment is `city-knoxville`, and it works best with the state segment `state-tn` in front of it. - `USERNAME-country-us-state-tn-city-knoxville`: rotating Knoxville IPs, a new connection usually gets a different one. - `USERNAME-country-us-state-tn-city-knoxville-zip-37921`: narrows to ZIP 37921, one of 9 ZIP areas mostly inside the city. - `USERNAME-country-us-state-tn-city-knoxville-asn-7922`: asks for an IP on Xfinity's network (AS7922) when one is online in Knoxville. - `USERNAME-country-us-state-tn-city-knoxville-session-knox01-ttl-20`: keeps one Knoxville 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](https://metroproxies.com/targeting/city/). ## Which internet providers serve homes in Knoxville? Home internet in Knoxville is led by Xfinity (Comcast), which the FCC map shows at 99% of 100,408 residential units, followed by KUB Fiber (95%), AT&T (94%) and WOW! (38%) (December 2025 data). 98% of Knoxville homes can order fiber and 99% cable, while licensed fixed wireless covers 97%. Fixed-wireless home internet is offered by T-Mobile Home Internet (85%) and Verizon 5G Home (80%). What this means for a Knoxville 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 local details matter when you test from Knoxville? With 198,722 residents in 2024, Knoxville ranks 131 among the 181 US cities over 150,000 on this site; the population grew 4.2% since 2020. It anchors or belongs to the Knoxville, TN metro area (957,608 people). For tests that read local details, expect area code 865, Eastern Time and ZIP codes such as 37921, 37919 and 37917. A proxy changes the IP only: set the time zone `America/New_York` and the language in your browser or tool yourself. Prices shown to Tennessee shoppers usually exclude sales tax: the state rate is 7%, and state plus average local rates come to 9.61% (Tax Foundation, July 2026). Tennessee has a consumer privacy law in force, the TIPA (since July 1, 2025). ## How much do Knoxville residential proxies cost? There is no city surcharge for Knoxville. As of October 2026 the 1 GB test plan is $1.50, 100 GB is $50, and the per-GB price falls to $0.50/GB. Traffic you do not use stays on the account. ### Which plan fits a Knoxville test? | Plan | Quantity | Price | Price per unit | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Test | 1 GB | $1.50 | $1.50/GB | | Local | 10 GB | $5.94 | $0.59/GB | | National | 100 GB | $50 | $0.50/GB | | Terabyte | 1 TB | $500 | $0.50/GB | Pay in crypto only (BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC).

Add the provider's network number: `USERNAME-country-us-state-tn-city-knoxville-asn-7922` asks for Xfinity (AS7922). Per the FCC map, Xfinity serves 99% of Knoxville 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 Knoxville proxy server and a residential proxy? A free Knoxville 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 Knoxville, TN, with username and password, a public acceptable use policy and support by email. The Knoxville segment is `country-us-state-tn-city-knoxville`. ### How many Knoxville IPs does MetroProxies have? MetroProxies does not publish IP counts per city. The number of residential devices online in Knoxville 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 Knoxville IP for several minutes? Add a session ID and a time to live to the username: `USERNAME-country-us-state-tn-city-knoxville-session-knox01-ttl-20` keeps one Knoxville 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 Knoxville IP. ### What phone area code should a Knoxville test use? Knoxville numbers use area code 865 (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 Knoxville? Any five-digit ZIP code can go in the `zip-` segment. 9 ZIP Code Tabulation Areas lie mostly inside Knoxville, among them 37921, 37919, 37917 and 37912 (2020 Census relationship file). A small ZIP has fewer homes online at once, so widen to the city if a ZIP returns errors. ## Which other Tennessee cities can I target? - [Nashville, TN](https://metroproxies.com/cities/nashville-tn/) — 704,963 residents - [Memphis, TN](https://metroproxies.com/cities/memphis-tn/) — 610,919 residents - [Chattanooga, TN](https://metroproxies.com/cities/chattanooga-tn/) — 191,496 residents - [Clarksville, TN](https://metroproxies.com/cities/clarksville-tn/) — 185,690 residents - [Murfreesboro, TN](https://metroproxies.com/cities/murfreesboro-tn/) — 168,387 residents ## Which large South cities are close in size to Knoxville? - [Columbus, GA](https://metroproxies.com/cities/columbus-ga/) — 201,830 residents - [Augusta, GA](https://metroproxies.com/cities/augusta-ga/) — 201,737 residents - [Mobile, AL](https://metroproxies.com/cities/mobile-al/) — 201,367 residents - [Birmingham, AL](https://metroproxies.com/cities/birmingham-al/) — 196,357 residents - [Montgomery, AL](https://metroproxies.com/cities/montgomery-al/) — 195,818 residents - [Brownsville, TX](https://metroproxies.com/cities/brownsville-tx/) — 191,967 residents **Test Knoxville with 1 GB** 1 GB for $1.50, city targeting included.
