+title: Cloudflare traffic not being sent to the geographically closest data center
+
+---
+
+Due to the way routing on [Cloudflare’s Anycast network](https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/cdn/glossary/anycast-network/) works, requests may be sent to data center locations that are not necessarily the closest geographically. For example, if we do not have a peering relationship with your network provider or if that cache location is seeing increased traffic or errors, we may manually route customers on Free, Pro, or Business plans to other data centers. You can check [Cloudflare's Status Page](https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/) to see if any maintenance or incidents are occurring. 
+
+Most requests are sent to the physically closest cache location, but some requests are sent to other ones that are able to handle requests without errors. For customers who require their zone to always be served by the closest geographic data center with the highest priority of traffic, please reach out to our Sales team to upgrade to an [Enterprise plan](https://www.cloudflare.com/plans/enterprise/contact/).
