When a The Ridge exit is worth asking for
For most sites, an IP address here identifies as South Africa first and The Ridge 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 The Ridge 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 The Ridge 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 The Ridge 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
The Ridge proxy questions, answered
Can I get a proxy with a The Ridge IP address?
Residential plans support city-level targeting, so you can request The Ridge specifically, or widen the same request to KwaZulu-Natal 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 The Ridge?
In KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, 400 km south of Johannesburg. The local timezone is Johannesburg time (Africa/Johannesburg). It lies up at 1,328 m.
Is a The Ridge IP different from any other South Africa IP?
To a site that reads only the country: no. The Ridge 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 The Ridge has nothing live when I ask?
Then take KwaZulu-Natal 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.
