Mr.Darcy is actually from Pemberly which we learn is near Derbyshire. His hoiuse or residence is not exactly in Derbyshire but a little on the aside. In the later part of the novel ,Elizabeth goes with her aunt and uncle to the lakes but cant make it there so instead they check out Derbyshire and hence Darcys house

Darcy searches for Wickham and Lydia in London.

He feels responsible for the fact that Wickham was able to elope with Lydia, because he barely prevented his sister, Georgiana Darcy, from eloping with Wickham. He know Wickham is a fortune hunter, out to find a wife with some money, and feels he should have warned people about that. He also knows Wickham will not marry Lydia or anyone else unless money is provided. Since he (Darcy) can provide it, he feels the elopement is his fault and his responsibility, and he is still in love with Lydia's sister Elizabeth, he wants to find Wickham and see to it that Wickham marries Lydia.

Can one equate Darcy with pride and Elizabeth with prejudice?

I think only to a degree. In the end, both characters share in this theme but in different ways. Darcy is proud because of his position in society, and that leads him to scorn anyone outside of his social class at the start. Critic A. Walton Litz commented: "in Pride and Prejudice one cannot equate Darcy with Pride, or Elizabeth with Prejudice; Darcy's pride of place is founded on social prejudice, while Elizabeth's initial prejudice against him is rooted in pride of her own quick perceptions." So Darcy is proud of his position because of social prejudice. Elizabeth at first had prejudice against him because she was proud of her own judgement.
