In my real job, I get to argue with vendors about this from time-to-time, and it's never fun.

But unless Beverly Hills has a city sales tax on e-books, which seems highly unlikely, you're free to use 90210 if you want to. If you want to be super-sure, use 90254, which is Hermosa Beach, CA, where I live. I attached a screenshot of a recent Kobo purchase, and you can see there is no tax.
Easier is New Hampshire as there is no sales tax.
