Do IP address ranges vary geographically over the years?

Question

My question is NOT ACCURATE how accurate a particular geolocation database is, and not how much the accuracy of ip ranges changes over the years (and with that time zones to these ranges).

I have a dataset of ip addresses from 2010/2011 (or maybe older) and ask myself how accurate it is to use the Geolocation database from 2014 for these addresses. Are ranges changing over the years? (It seems so, or companies will not update their geolocation databases) And if they change: how many times a year? About 1-2% or so? How accurate can ip addresses that correspond to a certain age be for a modern geolocation database?

I tried to find articles or articles on this topic, but could not find anything (about changing ip ranges over the years).

I already saw this article IP localization: mapping ip-> location fixed in time? and I also read that some companies say, “We update our database to 5% every year or month,” but what impact does this have on the ip range over time?

Answer 1

The range of IP addresses is allocated, deallocated or redistributed by the regional registry every day.
