The place
Where Sphinx sits
Sphinx is the 270th-largest listed city in Gauteng and the 9762nd-largest in South Africa.
It sits 70 km north of Johannesburg, in the far north-west of Gauteng, up at 1,196 m.
Local clocks run on Johannesburg time (Africa/Johannesburg).
The nearest big city is Pretoria, 16 km to the south.

When a Sphinx exit is worth asking for
For most sites, an IP address here identifies as South Africa first and Sphinx second. Checks that stop at the country, and that is prices, catalogs, language and most geo-blocks, behave the same whether your exit sits in Sphinx or in Johannesburg.
City targeting starts to matter when the question is genuinely local: store stock and pickup, delivery estimates, local search results, regional pricing, or anything a map decides for you. If that is your task, ask for Sphinx specifically. If it is not, the country exit is cheaper and far more stable.
City-level residential supply moves week to week everywhere, ours included. If nothing is live in Sphinx the moment you ask, the reliable fallback is a South Africa exit, and the free South Africa list shows the public pool measured live.

FAQ
Sphinx proxy questions, answered
Can I get a proxy with a Sphinx IP address?
Residential plans support city-level targeting, so you can request Sphinx specifically, or widen the same request to Gauteng without changing plans. What is live in any one city moves constantly, for every provider; the South Africa country exit is the request that never depends on one place.
Where is Sphinx?
In Gauteng, South Africa, 70 km north of Johannesburg. The local timezone is Johannesburg time (Africa/Johannesburg). It lies up at 1,196 m.
Is a Sphinx IP different from any other South Africa IP?
To a site that reads only the country: no. Sphinx and Johannesburg look identical there. To anything local, map results, stock, delivery estimates, the city is exactly the difference, and that is the one case worth paying the supply constraint for.
What if Sphinx has nothing live when I ask?
Then take Gauteng as a whole, or the South Africa country exit. Single-city supply is fluid in this whole industry, and we would rather hand you the wider fallback in one click than promise a specific street and miss.
