Covering: Hull, Beverley, Cottingham, Hessle, Hornsea, Withernsea and the rest of the HU postcode area.
The local landmark: The Deep aquarium stands where the River Hull meets the Humber, and the Humber Bridge at Hessle held the world record for the longest single span for 17 years.
Students: The University of Hull's campus is on Cottingham Road, with student lets spread through the Avenues and into Cottingham village.
On the ground: Long brick terraces with rear tenfoot lanes across Hull, Georgian streets in Beverley and flat coastal roads out across Holderness. If carrying is the hard part, Assisted from £349 brings us inside, with a two-person crew when furniture or bikes are aboard (£15 per end for 2nd or 3rd floor with no lift, £30 for 4th and up).
Who makes this move: Students and some of England's most affordable housing draw people north, while Hull graduates follow a well worn path down to London.
While you wait for the van: Hull ran its own municipal telephone network for over a century, which is why its phone boxes are cream rather than red.
