How to say "to move (house) from A to B" (change residence) in Japanese?

Question

How to say "to move (house) from A to B" (change residence) in Japanese?

Here, it says the word is 引っ越す hikkosu, so I searched it on my dictionary and could not find how to use it in the complex pattern "from A to B".

Four precise questions:

(1) What is the correct verb for "to move (house)"/"to change residence"?

(2) How to use it in the complex pattern "move from A to B"?

(3) My dictionary uses the particle に and へ to express the direction in the simple pattern "move to B". Can I use まで in this simple pattern "move to B"? (Paul move to the U.S. --> Paulはアメリカまで引っ越した)

(4) Can I use 移動する?

Answer 1

As for 1, 引っ越す is the most common word in speech. A synonymous kango is 転居する. If you go far (e.g. to a foreign country) on a permanent basis, 移住する can be used as well. When you move from Tokyo to Osaka and back to Tokyo again, this can be described as

• 東京から大阪に引っ越してまた戻ってきた.

Here you cannot use 移住した. When you do 移住, usually you'll never return.

2 and 3: to move from A to B is usually AからBに(へ)引っ越す. Bまで引っ越す is not impossible, but much less common.

For 4, no. 移動する in a similar usage would mean to travel. E.g., 東京からＮＹに(へ、まで)移動した means (I) travelled from Tokyo to NY.
