Around Derry.
Derry is a walled city on the Foyle, close to the Donegal border, so its natural catchment runs across both jurisdictions. A university campus, tourism around the walls and a lively arts and music scene sit alongside a strong family-business culture. Customers from Donegal regularly cross for shopping and services, so a site that welcomes them, and says how you handle currency and travel, reaches a wider market than one written only for local customers.
The nearest town in the same council area is Strabane (13 miles). Elsewhere in County Londonderry, Limavady (15 miles) and Coleraine (27 miles) are within reach. A longer drive takes in Omagh (28 miles). If you cover some of these and not others, the site should name the ones you do.
Inside Derry, the site can name areas such as Waterside, Bogside, Culmore, Creggan, Prehen and Shantallow.
Derry (postcode area BT) sits about 335 miles north-west of Exeter.
