## How do I target McKinney in the proxy username?

Write the city into the proxy username. For McKinney, the segment is `city-mckinney`, and it works best with the state segment `state-tx` in front of it.

- `USERNAME-country-us-state-tx-city-mckinney`: rotating McKinney IPs, a new connection usually gets a different one.
- `USERNAME-country-us-state-tx-city-mckinney-zip-75072`: narrows to ZIP 75072, one of 2 ZIP areas mostly inside the city.
- `USERNAME-country-us-state-tx-city-mckinney-asn-7018`: asks for an IP on AT&T's network (AS7018) when one is online in McKinney.
- `USERNAME-country-us-state-tx-city-mckinney-session-mcki01-ttl-20`: keeps one McKinney 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 McKinney?

Home internet in McKinney is led by AT&T, which the FCC map shows at 92% of 86,817 residential units, followed by Spectrum (91%) (December 2025 data). 81% of McKinney homes can order fiber and 86% cable, while licensed fixed wireless covers 97%. Fixed-wireless home internet is offered by Verizon 5G Home (74%) and T-Mobile Home Internet (72%).

What this means for a McKinney proxy: a residential exit IP belongs to whichever home network the device uses, so AT&T 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 McKinney?

The Census Bureau counts 227,526 people in McKinney for July 2024, up 16.5% from the April 2020 base.

Texas has a consumer privacy law in force, the TDPSA (since July 1, 2024).

## What else do people ask about McKinney proxies?

### How do I target AT&T in McKinney?

Add the provider's network number: `USERNAME-country-us-state-tx-city-mckinney-asn-7018` asks for AT&T (AS7018). Per the FCC map, AT&T serves 92% of McKinney 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 McKinney proxy server and a residential proxy?

A free McKinney 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 McKinney, TX, with username and password, a public acceptable use policy and support by email. The McKinney segment is `country-us-state-tx-city-mckinney`.

### How many McKinney IPs does MetroProxies have?

MetroProxies does not publish IP counts per city. The number of residential devices online in McKinney 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 McKinney IP for several minutes?

Add a session ID and a time to live to the username: `USERNAME-country-us-state-tx-city-mckinney-session-mcki01-ttl-20` keeps one McKinney 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 McKinney IP.

### What phone area code should a McKinney test use?

McKinney numbers use 214, 469, 945 and 972; 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 McKinney?

Any five-digit ZIP code can go in the `zip-` segment. 2 ZIP Code Tabulation Areas lie mostly inside McKinney, among them 75072 and 75070 (2020 Census relationship file). A small ZIP has fewer homes online at once, so widen to the city if a ZIP returns errors.
