Norfolk targeting is a username setting, not a separate product: keep your password, put `state-va-city-norfolk` after the country, and connect to `gw.metroproxies.com`. - `USERNAME-country-us-state-va-city-norfolk`: rotating Norfolk IPs, a new connection usually gets a different one. - `USERNAME-country-us-state-va-city-norfolk-zip-23502`: narrows to ZIP 23502, one of 14 ZIP areas mostly inside the city. - `USERNAME-country-us-state-va-city-norfolk-asn-22773`: asks for an IP on Cox's network (AS22773) when one is online in Norfolk. - `USERNAME-country-us-state-va-city-norfolk-session-norf01-ttl-10`: keeps one Norfolk 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. 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 Norfolk? Norfolk counts 111,693 residential units in the FCC National Broadband Map (December 2025 filing). Wired home internet there comes mainly from Cox (92%), Verizon Fios (61%) and Metronet (56%), by share of units covered. 60% of Norfolk homes can order fiber and 83% cable, while licensed fixed wireless covers 96%. Fixed-wireless home internet is offered by T-Mobile Home Internet (82%) and AT&T Internet Air (65%). These shares describe the market, not our pool. The network behind a given Norfolk exit depends on which residential device is online, so check the IP's ASN (AS22773 is Cox) before you compare results between runs. ## What local details matter when you test from Norfolk? Norfolk had 231,105 residents on July 1, 2024 (−2.9% since April 2020), per the Census Bureau's Vintage 2024 estimates. It anchors or belongs to the Virginia Beach-Chesapeake-Norfolk, VA-NC metro area (1.79 million people), which also includes [Virginia Beach](https://metroproxies.com/cities/virginia-beach-va/), [Chesapeake](https://metroproxies.com/cities/chesapeake-va/) and [Newport News](https://metroproxies.com/cities/newport-news-va/). For tests that read local details, expect area codes 757 and 948, Eastern Time and ZIP codes such as 23502, 23505 and 23518. 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 Virginia shoppers usually exclude sales tax: the state rate is 5.3%, and state plus average local rates come to 5.77% (Tax Foundation, July 2026). Virginia has a consumer privacy law in force, the VCDPA (since January 1, 2023). ## How much do Norfolk residential proxies cost? There is no city surcharge for Norfolk. 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 Norfolk 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). 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. ## What else do people ask about Norfolk proxies? ### What is the difference between a free Norfolk proxy server and a residential proxy? A free Norfolk 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 Norfolk, VA, with username and password, a public acceptable use policy and support by email. The Norfolk segment is `country-us-state-va-city-norfolk`. ### Can I keep the same Norfolk IP for several minutes? Add a session ID and a time to live to the username: `USERNAME-country-us-state-va-city-norfolk-session-norf01-ttl-10` keeps one Norfolk 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 Norfolk IP. ### Can I target a ZIP code inside Norfolk? Any five-digit ZIP code can go in the `zip-` segment. 14 ZIP Code Tabulation Areas lie mostly inside Norfolk, among them 23502, 23505, 23518 and 23511 (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 Norfolk? Add the provider's network number: `USERNAME-country-us-state-va-city-norfolk-asn-22773` asks for Cox (AS22773). Per the FCC map, Cox serves 92% of Norfolk homes. Combining city and ASN narrows the pool, so test with one request first; ASN targeting has no extra cost. ### How many Norfolk IPs does MetroProxies have? MetroProxies does not publish IP counts per city. The number of residential devices online in Norfolk 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 Norfolk proxy change my browser's time zone? No. The proxy changes the IP address that websites see, nothing else. Norfolk uses Eastern Time (UTC−5, UTC−4 in summer); set `America/New_York` and an en-US locale in your browser or test runner if the page you check reads them. ## Which other Virginia cities can I target? - [Virginia Beach, VA](https://metroproxies.com/cities/virginia-beach-va/) — 454,808 residents - [Chesapeake, VA](https://metroproxies.com/cities/chesapeake-va/) — 254,997 residents - [Richmond, VA](https://metroproxies.com/cities/richmond-va/) — 233,655 residents - [Newport News, VA](https://metroproxies.com/cities/newport-news-va/) — 183,056 residents - [Alexandria, VA](https://metroproxies.com/cities/alexandria-va/) — 159,102 residents ## Which large South cities are close in size to Norfolk? - [Frisco, TX](https://metroproxies.com/cities/frisco-tx/) — 235,208 residents - [Cape Coral, FL](https://metroproxies.com/cities/cape-coral-fl/) — 233,025 residents - [Huntsville, AL](https://metroproxies.com/cities/huntsville-al/) — 230,402 residents - [McKinney, TX](https://metroproxies.com/cities/mckinney-tx/) — 227,526 residents - [Baton Rouge, LA](https://metroproxies.com/cities/baton-rouge-la/) — 220,907 residents **Test Norfolk with 1 GB** 1 GB for $1.50, city targeting included.
