## How do I target Newport News in the proxy username?

You pick Newport News by adding `city-newport_news` (and `state-va`) to the username you already use. No other endpoint, no extra fee.

- `USERNAME-country-us-state-va-city-newport_news`: rotating Newport News IPs, a new connection usually gets a different one.
- `USERNAME-country-us-state-va-city-newport_news-zip-23602`: narrows to ZIP 23602, one of 8 ZIP areas mostly inside the city.
- `USERNAME-country-us-state-va-city-newport_news-asn-22773`: asks for an IP on Cox's network (AS22773) when one is online in Newport News.
- `USERNAME-country-us-state-va-city-newport_news-session-newp01-ttl-10`: keeps one Newport News 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 Newport News has no matching IP online, widen to `state-va` and retry later. See [how city targeting works](https://metroproxies.com/targeting/city/).

## What else do people ask about Newport News proxies?

### What is the difference between a free Newport News proxy server and a residential proxy?

A free Newport News 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 Newport News, VA, with username and password, a public acceptable use policy and support by email. The Newport News segment is `country-us-state-va-city-newport_news`.

### Can I keep the same Newport News IP for several minutes?

Add a session ID and a time to live to the username: `USERNAME-country-us-state-va-city-newport_news-session-newp01-ttl-10` keeps one Newport News 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 Newport News IP.

### Can I target a ZIP code inside Newport News?

Any five-digit ZIP code can go in the `zip-` segment. 8 ZIP Code Tabulation Areas lie mostly inside Newport News, among them 23602, 23604, 23608 and 23606 (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 Cox in Newport News?

Add the provider's network number: `USERNAME-country-us-state-va-city-newport_news-asn-22773` asks for Cox (AS22773). Per the FCC map, Cox serves 93% of Newport News homes. Combining city and ASN narrows the pool, so test with one request first; ASN targeting has no extra cost.

### Will a Newport News proxy change my browser's time zone?
