Why Hong Kong
What buyers collect through a Hong Kong IP
Centaline, 28Hse and Midland
The real estate list opens with centanet.com, 28hse.com, midland.com.hk, house730.com and ricacorp.com. The agents’ sites also publish transaction records and estate pages, so recorded sales can go next to asking prices.
google.com.hk, with Bing on desktops
Similarweb ranks google.com.hk sixth among all sites. Google took 89.59% of searches in October 2026, Bing 4.56% and Yahoo 3.92% (StatCounter), and on desktops Bing reaches 11.88%. Rank checks are covered under SERP proxies.
OpenRice, Trip.com and two delivery apps
openrice.com is 35th among all sites and trip.com 19th. Deliveroo set 7 April 2025 as the end of its Hong Kong service, which left foodpanda and Keeta as the two large delivery platforms (The Standard, March 2025).
Coverage
Sha Tin, Kwun Tong, Yuen Long and the other large districts
The 2021 census counted 7,411,945 people on land, and the official provisional figure for mid-2026 is 7,518,300. The New Territories hold 53.75% of the census total, Kowloon 30.12% and Hong Kong Island 16.13%. A login selects Hong Kong as a whole with -cc-hk; the dashboard generator lists which districts are on offer.
| District | Area | Residents, 2021 | Share of residents |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sha Tin | New Territories | 692,806 | 9.35% |
| Kwun Tong | Kowloon | 673,166 | 9.08% |
| Yuen Long | New Territories | 668,080 | 9.01% |
| Eastern | Hong Kong Island | 529,603 | 7.15% |
| Tuen Mun | New Territories | 506,879 | 6.84% |
| Kwai Tsing | New Territories | 495,798 | 6.69% |
| Sai Kung | New Territories | 489,037 | 6.6% |
| Sham Shui Po | Kowloon | 431,090 | 5.82% |
| Kowloon City | Kowloon | 410,634 | 5.54% |
| Wong Tai Sin | Kowloon | 406,802 | 5.49% |
| Tsuen Wan | New Territories | 320,094 | 4.32% |
| Tai Po | New Territories | 316,470 | 4.27% |
Population: 2021 Population Census, land total; areas as the Home Affairs Department groups them. Smaller districts: Yau Tsim Mong 310,647, North 309,631, Southern 263,278, Central and Western 235,953, Islands 185,282 and Wan Chai 166,695. Where available, exits also come from places such as Kowloon Tong, Kai Tak, Ho Man Tin, Hung Hom, Tin Shui Wai and Tseung Kwan O. If the place matters, open the exit in our IP checker first. Lookups are often vague: on 3 November 2026 we took 40 addresses at random from the announced ranges of eight local networks, outside our gateway, and ipinfo.io gave just “Hong Kong” as the city for 29 of them.
Networks
HKT and HKBN on fixed lines, four phone networks, then HGC and HK Cable
APNIC Labs credits HKT’s Netvigator network with 17.51% of Hong Kong users and HKBN with 12.10%, and eight brands reach 58.38% between them. Residential and mobile exits come from homes and phones on these networks.
| Network | Lines | ASN | Share of Hong Kong users | IPv6-capable |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| HKT (Netvigator) | Fixed broadband | AS4760 | 17.51% | 1.51% |
| HKBN | Fixed broadband | AS9269 | 12.1% | 0.33% |
| China Mobile Hong Kong | Mobile and fixed | AS9231 · AS137872 | 7.9% | 0.07% |
| csl (HKT) | Mobile | AS38819 | 6.09% | 0.07% |
| HGC | Fixed broadband | AS9304 | 4.86% | 0.39% |
| 3HK | Mobile | AS10118 | 4.25% | 0.10% |
| SmarTone | Mobile | AS17924 | 3.74% | 0.07% |
| China Mobile International | Carrier | AS58453 | 2.3% | 0.09% |
| HK Cable (i-CABLE) | Cable broadband | AS9908 | 1.93% | 0.10% |
Users: APNIC Labs, 1 November 2026, 60-day window; China Mobile Hong Kong adds two ASNs, and its IPv6 figure is that of AS9231. IPv6: APNIC’s per-network table to 2 November 2026. Hosting, cloud and VPN networks fill much of the rest of APNIC’s Hong Kong list and are left out. China Mobile Hong Kong closed its offer for HKBN on 17 September 2025 with a 78.08% stake; APNIC still counts the two networks apart. An exit’s ASN names its network; network keys exist only for the US, the UK and Germany.
Mobile
Hong Kong mobile proxies and the four large phone networks
OFCA counted 34,025,558 mobile subscriptions in June 2026, machine connections included. It lists five network operators and 26 virtual ones for September 2026 and prints no operator shares. The bars give each network’s share of users on APNIC’s list. Mobile exits run on these networks where the pool has them; the order page shows availability.
Subscriber counts: TelecomLead, 25 June 2025, citing GlobalData. Android ran 53.55% of Hong Kong mobile traffic in October 2026 and iOS 46.44% (StatCounter).

How Hong Kong property sites print a price
- Prices come in 萬, ten thousand. On 3 November 2026 a 28Hse listing read “售 $535 萬元”, meaning HK$5,350,000, and a Ricacorp row “$477.5萬”, meaning HK$4,775,000.
- One flat can carry two areas. That 28Hse listing gives 建築 (gross) 463 sq ft and 實用 (saleable) 340 sq ft, which works out at HK$11,555 per gross square foot and HK$15,735 per saleable one. Some listings print “建築: --”, and Ricacorp’s rows show saleable area alone.
- New homes are quoted another way. Midland’s new-build list gives 折實呎價, a net price per square foot, such as “$16,959 - $20,991”, and an entry price such as “約 $704 萬起”, about 7.04 million Hong Kong dollars and up.
- Midland, Ricacorp and Centaline have currency and area selectors in the header, set to HKD and ft² when we opened them. Store both values with each price.
- The Hong Kong dollar trades in a band of 7.75 to 7.85 per US dollar, under a system in place since 17 October 1983 (HKMA), so a US-dollar conversion moves little from day to day.
Data protection and computer access rules in Hong Kong
DLA Piper’s overview of Hong Kong data law says the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (Cap. 486) has applied since 1996 and the Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (PCPD) oversees compliance. After a breach of the data protection principles, it says, the PCPD can issue an enforcement notice; ignoring one is an offence with a fine of up to HK$50,000 and up to two years in prison. Doxxing offences were added in October 2021.
The Law Reform Commission’s paper of 2022 quotes section 161 of the Crimes Ordinance (Cap. 200), on obtaining access to a computer with criminal or dishonest intent (up to five years in prison on indictment), and section 27A of the Telecommunications Ordinance (Cap. 106), on unauthorised access by telecommunications (a fine at level 4, then HK$25,000). The government’s legislation site would not open for us, so we know these ordinances only through those two texts, and neither sets a rule for proxy or VPN use. Official gambling policy restricts gambling to authorised outlets (Home and Youth Affairs Bureau), and gambling sites are not a supported use.

Hong Kong proxy questions
It sends your requests through a home or mobile connection in Hong Kong, so local sites answer as they would a visitor there. People use a Hong Kong IP address to check their own ads and prices, to collect public listings on Carousell or 28Hse, or to read google.com.hk results.
No per-country count is published for Hong Kong, so we quote none. Home connections are in the pool, mobile exits run on the four phone networks named above where the pool has them, and the order page shows availability before you buy.
Logins on this page pick Hong Kong as a whole, -cc-hk. The dashboard generator lists the districts on offer, where available. Confirm the place in our IP checker before relying on it, because databases place one address differently and ipinfo.io often prints only “Hong Kong”.
Homes and phones on the networks most people use: HKT, HKBN, HGC and HK Cable on fixed lines; China Mobile Hong Kong, csl, 3HK and SmarTone on phones. A login cannot pick one, as those keys are limited to the US, the UK and Germany; a lookup’s ASN shows which you have.
Registry and host names often differ from brands. HKCSL GPRS NETWORK is csl, Hutchison Telephone Company is 3HK, and HKBN addresses have ctinets.com host names. Six of 40 addresses from these networks’ ranges, looked up outside our gateway on 3 November 2026, came back as Tung Chung, five of them on phone networks, so read district names on mobile addresses with care.
Residential and mobile are the options for Hong Kong today; the order page lists the markets with static IPs. Rotating residential traffic suits listings, prices and search results. For app checks and mobile sites, pay $0.50 more per GB for mobile: phones produce 59.88% of Hong Kong page views.
On our pricing page. Residential runs from $3.49 per GB down to $1.69 at the largest volume, mobile from $3.99 to $2.19. Where the order page lists static IPs, ISP is $4.00 and datacenter $2.00 per IP per month. Traffic never expires, and the same page shows the present terms of the free trial.
DLA Piper’s overview and the Law Reform Commission’s paper, the texts we read, set no rule for proxy or VPN use, and we could not open the ordinances themselves. Section 161 of the Crimes Ordinance and section 27A of the Telecommunications Ordinance cover computer access, and Cap. 486 covers any personal data you collect. Not legal advice.
Whoever runs a free proxy can read what passes through it, and you rarely learn who that is. Hosting names such as Zenlayer, Amazon and Datacamp also appear on APNIC’s Hong Kong list. A lookup showing one of those means a server, while HKT, HKBN or 3HK means a local line.
Enter gate.aeonproxy.com, port 7000, username ap_a1b2c3-cc-hk and your password in a browser extension, an app or an HTTP client. Append -sid-hk01-time-7200 to the username to keep one exit for two hours. SOCKS5 and code samples are in the docs.
