# Location Settings

Configure residential proxy geo-targeting by country, state, city, continent, and ASN, with location mapping and verification guidance.

Thordata's Residential proxy network covers 195 locations and offers country, city, state, continent, and ASN targeting.

You can find more information on selecting geo-location parameters in the pages listed below:

### Available Geo-Targeting Parameters <a href="#available-geo-targeting-parameters" id="available-geo-targeting-parameters"></a>

* **Country** : Use a 2-letter ISO country code to select proxies specific to a particular country.
* **State**: Specify states or regions for localized IPs.
* **City**: Refine your selection to specific cities within your chosen country.
* **Continent：**&#x54;arget continent (omit for random)
* **ASN**: Target specific networks with ASN-based proxy filtering

### **Country, State, and City Mapping**

To map proxies accurately, Thordata uses a regularly updated **GeoMapping Database**. This database assigns **country**, **state**, **city and** **continent**,parameters to proxies for precise location targeting.

{% hint style="info" %}
Different databases may yield variations in location data. If discrepancies occur (e.g., a proxy’s actual location differs from the reported one), verify the location using the same database utilized by your target website.
{% endhint %}
