A low hum in Orange County California.
Very specific sound every single time, not exactly the frequency youtube shows like in Taos Hum but higher and crispier. It's not tinnitus infortunately because I have amazing hearing and typically hear this sound on one side of my head unless I'm facing the direction the sound comes from then it hits both ears and then depending on that particular angle either my left or right ear with slowly come back to 100%. It takes longer time the older I get and I realize now that I don't get this sound in certain deserts where I've travelled. Food for thought.
