How do I target Minneapolis in the proxy username?

You pick Minneapolis by adding city-minneapolis (and state-mn) to the username you already use. No other endpoint, no extra fee.

  • USERNAME-country-us-state-mn-city-minneapolis: rotating Minneapolis IPs, a new connection usually gets a different one.
  • USERNAME-country-us-state-mn-city-minneapolis-zip-55418: narrows to ZIP 55418, one of 20 ZIP areas mostly inside the city.
  • USERNAME-country-us-state-mn-city-minneapolis-asn-7922: asks for an IP on Xfinity's network (AS7922) when one is online in Minneapolis.
  • USERNAME-country-us-state-mn-city-minneapolis-session-minn01-ttl-10: keeps one Minneapolis IP for up to 10 minutes; it can change earlier if the home device goes offline.

City availability varies; the checkout shows what is online. When Minneapolis has no matching IP online, widen to state-mn and retry later. See how city targeting works.

Which internet providers serve homes in Minneapolis?

Per the FCC National Broadband Map (December 2025 data, read 2026-10-18), Xfinity (Comcast) reports wired service to 100% of Minneapolis's 190,756 homes and apartments. The other main wired providers are CenturyLink (94%). By technology, fiber covers 72% of addresses, cable 98%, and 98% can order a gigabit wired plan. Fixed-wireless home internet is offered by Verizon 5G Home (80%) and T-Mobile Home Internet (80%).

These shares describe the market, not our pool. The network behind a given Minneapolis exit depends on which residential device is online, so check the IP's ASN (AS7922 is Xfinity) before you compare results between runs.

What else do people ask about Minneapolis proxies?

What is the difference between a free Minneapolis proxy server and a residential proxy?

A free Minneapolis 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 Minneapolis, MN, with username and password, a public acceptable use policy and support by email. The Minneapolis segment is country-us-state-mn-city-minneapolis.

Can I keep the same Minneapolis IP for several minutes?

Add a session ID and a time to live to the username: USERNAME-country-us-state-mn-city-minneapolis-session-minn01-ttl-10 keeps one Minneapolis exit for up to 10 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 Minneapolis IP.

Can I target a ZIP code inside Minneapolis?

Any five-digit ZIP code can go in the zip- segment. 20 ZIP Code Tabulation Areas lie mostly inside Minneapolis, among them 55418, 55406, 55419 and 55417 (2020 Census relationship file). A small ZIP has fewer homes online at once, so widen to the city if a ZIP returns errors.

How do I target Xfinity in Minneapolis?

Add the provider's network number: USERNAME-country-us-state-mn-city-minneapolis-asn-7922 asks for Xfinity (AS7922). Per the FCC map, Xfinity serves 100% of Minneapolis homes. Combining city and ASN narrows the pool, so test with one request first; ASN targeting has no extra cost.

How many Minneapolis IPs does MetroProxies have?

MetroProxies does not publish IP counts per city. The number of residential devices online in Minneapolis 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.

Will a Minneapolis proxy change my browser's time zone?

No. The proxy changes the IP address that websites see, nothing else. Minneapolis uses Central Time (UTC−6, UTC−5 in summer); set America/Chicago and an en-US locale in your browser or test runner if the page you check reads them.
