## How do I target San Antonio in the proxy username?

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

- `USERNAME-country-us-state-tx-city-san_antonio`: rotating San Antonio IPs, a new connection usually gets a different one.
- `USERNAME-country-us-state-tx-city-san_antonio-zip-78258`: narrows to ZIP 78258, one of 43 ZIP areas mostly inside the city.
- `USERNAME-country-us-state-tx-city-san_antonio-asn-20115`: asks for an IP on Spectrum's network (AS20115) when one is online in San Antonio.
- `USERNAME-country-us-state-tx-city-san_antonio-session-sana01-ttl-30`: keeps one San Antonio IP for up to 30 minutes; it can change earlier if the home device goes offline.

City availability varies; the checkout shows what is online. When San Antonio has no matching IP online, widen to `state-tx` and retry later. See [how city targeting works](https://metroproxies.com/targeting/city/).

## Which internet providers serve homes in San Antonio?

Home internet in San Antonio is led by Spectrum (Charter), which the FCC map shows at 94% of 650,002 residential units, followed by AT&T (76%) and Google Fiber (32%) (December 2025 data).

A residential IP in San Antonio is announced by the provider of the home it comes from. The FCC shares above tell you which networks to expect; the [ASN targeting page](https://metroproxies.com/targeting/asn/) shows how to pin one, for example AS20115 for Spectrum.

## What local details matter when you test from San Antonio?

San Antonio uses Central Time (America/Chicago), the 210 and 726 area codes and 43 ZIP areas. Match those in your test setup; the proxy only sets where the IP is.

Data collected about Texas residents falls under the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act (TDPSA).

## What else do people ask about San Antonio proxies?

### Which San Antonio ZIP codes can I request?

Any five-digit ZIP code can go in the `zip-` segment. 43 ZIP Code Tabulation Areas lie mostly inside San Antonio, among them 78258, 78251, 78224 and 78247 (2020 Census relationship file). A small ZIP has fewer homes online at once, so widen to the city if a ZIP returns errors.

### Is a San Antonio proxy server the same as a residential proxy?

Not always. "San Antonio proxy server" means any proxy with a San Antonio IP; public free lists mostly show shared data-center or open servers that change often. A residential proxy sends your request through a home connection in San Antonio, so sites see a local household address. With MetroProxies you write `country-us-state-tx-city-san_antonio` in the username; plans start at $1.50.

### Can I get a San Antonio IP from one internet provider?

Add the provider's network number: `USERNAME-country-us-state-tx-city-san_antonio-asn-20115` asks for Spectrum (AS20115). Per the FCC map, Spectrum serves 94% of San Antonio homes. Combining city and ASN narrows the pool, so test with one request first; ASN targeting has no extra cost.

### Does a San Antonio IP set the local time on my tool?

No. The proxy changes the IP address that websites see, nothing else. San Antonio 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.

### How do I hold one San Antonio IP during a session?

Add a session ID and a time to live to the username: `USERNAME-country-us-state-tx-city-san_antonio-session-sana01-ttl-30` keeps one San Antonio exit for up to 30 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 San Antonio IP.

### Which area codes belong to San Antonio?

San Antonio numbers use 210 and 726; 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.
