Beverly Hills, 90210 was titled after the postal code of the town in which it was set. The series was the original teen and twentysomething TV drama of The '90s.

Quite a few Marvel characters have defined addresses, especially if they operate within New York City. The Baxter Building is located at the corner of 42nd Street and Madison Avenue in Manhattan — unless it's recently been hijacked into space.
