IP-to-Location Accuracy IP-based geolocation services can only provide an approximate measure of geolocation accuracy. With these services, you can obtain 95 percent to 99 percent accuracy of a user's country. And they provide 50 percent to 75 percent accuracy for a user's city.
Can you tell a country from an IP address?
No you can't - IP addresses get reallocated and reassigned from time to time, so the mapping of IP to location will also change over time.
Are IP addresses assigned by country?
There are 232 (over four billion) IP addresses in the IPv4 protocol. Of these, almost 600 million are reserved and cannot be used for public routing. The rest are allocated to countries by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) via the regional Internet registries (RIRs).
Why does my IP address say Im in another country?
Why does my IP address seem to be in a different country than expected? There are Geolocation or GeoIP services on the internet, such as https://www.whatismyip.com/, which try to determine the location of your IP address as you access them.
