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.
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.
With 428,579 residents in 2024, Minneapolis ranks 46 among the 181 US cities over 150,000 on this site; the population fell 0.3% since 2020. It anchors or belongs to the Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN-WI metro area (3.76 million people), which also includes St. Paul.
Local formats matter when you check forms, prices or ads: Minneapolis phone numbers use area code 612, clocks run on Central Time (America/Chicago), and 20 ZIP areas fall mostly inside the city. Prices shown to Minnesota shoppers usually exclude sales tax: the state rate is 6.88%, and state plus average local rates come to 8.14% (Tax Foundation, July 2026). Minnesota has a consumer privacy law in force, the MCDPA (since July 31, 2025).

Pay in crypto only (BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC). The top-up is the price of the plan you choose, less any balance you already have, and at least $25; anything left stays on your balance. No KYC — no ID, no selfie, no documents. Prices in USD.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
