A low hum in USA, Phoenix

Hum, deep. Mostly only at night. Not always present. The hum or pulse does not have a discernible pattern. Sometimes short rolling, but steady pulse with longer extended steady sessions . Sometimes a mix. I have heard this hum for well over a decade, maybe longer. At first I thought it was outside - it is more prevalent inside but I have sensed/heard it outdoors. I have tinnitus and that is constant since I was about 7 to 8 years old. No

A low, continuous hum I first noticed the hum when I moved into my flat in 1999. It was extremely loud and intermittent - it would hum for a few seconds, stop for a few seconds, start again.
