The reader is left to infer from the following conversation from 'The Valley of Fear' that Moriarty lived somewhere in London. Moriarty's younger brother lived in the West of England.
INSPECTOR MacDONALD: '. . . I thought you told me once, Mr Holmes, that you had never met Professor Moriarty.'
Sherlock Holmes: 'No, I never have.'
INSPECTOR MacDONALD: 'Then how do you know about his rooms?'
SHERLOCK HOLMES: 'Ah, that's another matter. I have been three times in his rooms, twice waiting for him under different pretexts and leaving before he came. Once - well, I can hardly tell about the once to an official detective. It was on the last occasion that I took the liberty of running over his papers, with the most unexpected results.'
INSPECTOR MacDONALD: 'You found something compromising?'
SHERLOCK HOLMES: 'Absolutely nothing. That was what amazed me. However, you have now seen the point of the picture. It shows him to be a very wealthy man. How did he acquire wealth? He is unmarried. His younger brother is a station-master in the West of England. . . .'
