- 43201 (Short North/Victorian Village)
- 43206 (German Village)
- 43210 (Ohio State University)

## What do buyers ask about Columbus residential proxies?

### Can I target ZIP 43215 in Columbus?

Yes. Add `-zip-43215` after `city-columbus`, and Columbus requests exit from homes in that ZIP. 43201 (Short North/Victorian Village) and 43206 (German Village) work the same way.

### Which Columbus neighborhoods can a proxy reach?

Any Columbus neighborhood with online homes, through its ZIP code. Examples: Downtown, Short North, Arena District, German Village; match each one to its ZIP with the Columbus list above.

### What is the difference between a Columbus proxy and an Ohio proxy?

An Ohio session uses `state-oh` and exits anywhere in Ohio. A Columbus session adds `city-columbus`, and a ZIP such as 43215 narrows it further. Both cost the same per GB.

### Do Columbus IPs work for ad checks in the Columbus, OH market?

Yes. Columbus sits in the Columbus, OH DMA (rank 34), so a `city-columbus` exit loads ads bought for that market. Two or three Columbus ZIP codes catch creatives that change by neighborhood.

### Does a Columbus proxy cover the whole Columbus, OH metro area?

No. `city-columbus` targets IPs located in Columbus. Suburbs of the 2.2-million Columbus, OH area are reached through their own ZIP codes, or the state code of the state they sit in.

### Can I test Columbus proxies with Bitcoin and no KYC?

Yes: pay in crypto with no ID, selfie or documents, then try ZIP 43215 on the 1 GB plan ($1.50). No free trial; Columbus refunds follow the [refund policy](https://fiftystateproxy.com/refunds/ "FiftyStateProxy refund policy").
