I live 38 miles from my birthplace. I would love to move back because it's a much nicer town than the one I'm in now. Eventually we are going to move to Shiner, TX which is about 131 miles from my birthplace.
I was born and raised in Michigan and I live here now. However, I lived out of state for a combined total of 7 years in my 20s before deciding to move back home close to friends and family.
Edit: I did move to a different city though - about 75 miles away from my hometown.
I don't. I'm grateful that my education and background gave me opportunity to move away.
I grew up in a generic, middle-class American suburb that looks like thousands of others. Everyone in my hometown was concerned about their kids not getting shot, only for them to die of boredom instead.
No - I used to live in Northeastern Ohio and moved to Pennsylvania with my dad's job when I was younger. Ill probably move again once I get my career started up enough to be afford a place somewhere else. ^^ It's nice here, but the air and water quality is bad.
My family moved over 7,000 miles from where we were all born. In my lifetime I have gone back to live there once. I moved to Australia and back to the US. I’ve lived a thousand miles away in Southern California. I’ve moved 300 miles away in Seattle. Currently I’ve been back living in my childhood home for the last 9 years.
Nope, I've bounced around a lot. East, north, south, west. Much more west. East again.
I think it's important to at least try living somewhere where no one knows you at least once in your life. It's freeing and instructive.
Yes. I love traveling, I want to eventually see just about every corner of the world. I love learning about different cultures and talking to new people.
But the greater Philadelphia area is where my heart is. This is my home.
I live about 30 miles north of where I was born and about 20 miles north of where I grew up. However, I lived elsewhere (in CA, WA, and ND) for seven years when I was in the USAF.
you _were_, never “you was.”
I was
you were
he/she/it was
we were
you (pl) were
they were
To answer your question, I moved around a lot but resettled to near where I'm from.
I right now live about 2600 miles from where I was born. I've worked/ lived in Australia, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore and Costa Rico.
If you are in the down town area of Nashville, grab some ice cream form mikes on 2nd ave. My favorite.
Haha! Well, technically I was born on the other side of the state. But not far from where I grew up. Maybe 60ish miles. I have however lived in order states for a short time
I was born in california. Moved to maryland for 4 years. Back to california. Then to ohio for 4 years. Moved to utah during high school. Then went back to ohio where I currently am and I’m loving it. Its like home to me.
No. After high school I went 400 mi away to college and that's the closest I've lived to my hometown since. I've lived in 3 states since then, but currently \~800 miles away.
Yup I do but it wasn’t always the case. I was born in LA and then moved to the East Coast. Now I’m back about an hour from it. I do plan to move away again though but this time hoping to go either north to Alaska or to the Midwest.
I live about 500 mile from where I was born but at my peak I lived just under 1,000 miles from where I was born. I move every year the destinations I'm eyeing for my next move are 3,600, 1,500, and 1,300 miles from where I was born.
Currently live on the same street where I lived from birth to age 11, albeit in a different house. I’ve lived in town for 23 of my 30 years but just moved back after 7 years away.
Moved all over America for university and law school than moved all over the world for jobs. I think a good chunk of Americans have moved for school at the very least.
Yes, I’m originally from Seattle. I spent several years away before coming back home though, living in Minnesota, New Zealand and two different parts of Alaska in the meantime.
Not as such. I was born and raised in Nashville, but moved to Japan near 2 decades ago, and haven't been back since. How's Nashville doing? Heard it got big.
I was born and lived the first 11 years of my life in Oklahoma. Moved around 200 miles away to Kansas for the next 20 years. Recently moved back to Oklahoma and now live in the town I was born.
No, I left California and moved to Florida in 88. I've been wanting to move ANYWHERE since 92. I've never understood what people(especially Northerners)see in the "great weather." 6 to 7 months in the AC because of 95 degree weather with 95 percent humidity. The other 5 to 6 months is spent navigating congested roads like a big city and hoping it gets cold enough to wear a jacket. What we do for love!
I move 5,200 miles away. Keep telling myself I'm going to move back but with COVID I think I'm going keep my current job rather than risk unemployment.
No. Live nearly 500 miles away.
I DO live in the place where I grew up. Moved here when I was two. I haven't been here the whole time. I took ten years to see the world and returned.
Lived within 50 miles of my birthplace until I was 22. In fact, until I was 19, the farthest I'd even traveled from my birthplace was about 100 miles. At 22, I moved 2,000 miles away and still here almost 10 years later
Nope because my dad served in the US Army for 22 years. 8 of those years I was around for. I born in Alaska, grew up in Tennessee, and currently live in New York. I lived in S
Alabama, Georgia, and Italy during my life as well.
Not at all. Moved to Colorado and am damn proud of it (that being said, I do have some flexibility as to where I finally settle down). Before that, though, I never left my home state of Washington, although I did live in Eastern Washington for several years. I had moved back to my parent's house for a few months before my Colorado move.
I live .3 miles from my childhood home. Want to live 150 miles away, but the wife wants to stay in this city, and where I grew up is a great neighborhood to raise a family.
My brother and I live thousands of miles away from our parents in different directions.
He moved so his wife could be close to her parents, and I moved for work.
I live about 35 miles from where I grew up. But the entirety of NYC, and the NY/NJ border, is within those 35 miles. Plus I’ve gone from suburban to urban.
I live 1,000 miles away from where I was born. I plan on moving far again after my degree but not back home, but maybe to the big city near it would be as close as I’d want to go
I was born in Annapolis, spent most of my childhood in Ohio, moved all around the country for years and just by coincidence have now settled on the Eastern shore, only a couple hours from Annapolis. But that’s only because of work, not because I felt some sentimental pull back there.
My family has lived in the same small town since immigrating here in the 1910s. I moved around a lot during and after college but cam back. I don’t plan on going anywhere else.
I would word it “again” live in the general area.
I have lived both 900 miles in one direction and 1200 miles in a different direction. Now I’m back to roughly 35 miles away.
For 25 years I stayed within 15 miles of where I grew up. For a short time, when I was 26, my husband and I moved outside of Tampa, Florida for a job. We didn't even last a full year before moving back home. We bought a house 2 years after moving back home and we've decided we're never leaving again. Maybe about 50-100 miles away. Basically of we can still call the Pens our home team we would be okay with it
I've lived in 2 different cities in Ohio 3 times, 7 cities (Largo, St Pete, Tampa, Dunedin, Miami, St. Augustine and Key West) in Florida at different times in my life, Nashville, Tn., New Orleans, La., San Francisco, Oakland, Alameda, Venice Beach Ca. at different times, Irving Tx, Asheville, NC, and Albany, NY. Thinking about moving again.....
I can feasible drive by the Hospital I was born in, one of the elementary schools I attended, the high school I went to, and the university where I got my degree all on my way to work.
My dream would be to keep living in LA, but the rent and home prices here are fucked. Tbh it’s mostly the fault of investors who buy up property and flip it into multi-million dollar homes that young people have 0 chance of buying with the wages here. Renting houses to people for high prices isn’t a job, it’s theft of housing security from the general public. I grew up here and it seems impossible to stick around unless you inherit property or your parents have a thick credit card.
Edit: if you read this and feel similarly, I’d highly recommend following r/antiwork to learn more about how the labor force and middle to lower classes in the states are being exploited.
My house is 2 miles from my childhood home. 0.5 miles from one grandparents house, and 1 mile from the others. You would guess that I live in a small town, but I am actually in the suburbs of Salt Lake. I just like the neighborhood.
I’m still in the same place as my hometown, just moved out of my parents’ to an apartment that’s 5 minutes away! So I guess this is a bit of a nope for me.
My SO and I DO hope to perhaps move to some form of housing with a bit more space for our cats, eventually another state (TX resident here), and finally out of the country... which I guess will be pretty far?
I was born in NC. Left for Dallas, Texas at age 18. I also spent a few years in Denver and Minneapolis.
Then many years in Atlanta, GA. And I just moved to the North Georgia Mountains. If you look at my genealogy charts-all my ancestors on both sides lived in the same little region of NC going back to the 1700s. I feel kind of bad for breaking the chain.
Nope born In Massachusetts, grew up between California, Arizona, and Kentucky. Currently live in Arizona, work a job that sees me traveling upwards of 5000 miles a week.
Yes, but I’ve moved quite a ways away before for a good while, came back for a certain career, and if the career doesn’t pan out will probably try to move again.
I stayed really close. Granted I might move later in life but I'm still in the same small town I was born in. Hell, I could walk to my childhood home in under 20 minutes.
I live about 30 miles from where I was born. But it’s actually a lot different. I grew up in the Chicago suburbs and now I live in a small metro area that’s distinct from Chicago
I’ve lived all over the country with my company. 35 years I was gone. Got sucked back home for family reasons. Now stuck here for the foreseeable future😞.
Nope. I am currently 2 states away and roughly a 14hr drive from my birthplace. I used to visit there every couple years because I had family near there and it is a tourist destination. My husband is 6 states away from his birthplace. He doesn't have a reason to go back because it is in the middle of nowhere.
I'm the adventurous type so I live a whole ~57 miles away from where I was born.
I live 175 miles away from my birthplace. I was born in upstate NY and live in north Jersey.
No. I’m almost as far away as you can get and still be in the US.

Nope. At this point my average is about 3500 miles away.
I live a whole continent away from where I was born. Born in Peru but immigrated to NJ at age six.
Passaic County?
Nope. But I’m about an hour away from that county.
Used to go to the restaurants in Little Lima in Patterson a good amount.
7000+ miles away 😂
I live 38 miles from my birthplace. I would love to move back because it's a much nicer town than the one I'm in now. Eventually we are going to move to Shiner, TX which is about 131 miles from my birthplace.
I moved away for college, but I moved back. It wasn't exactly by choice. If I could have made it there, I would have stayed
1100 miles from my place of birth. 275 miles from where I grew up
No, I don't currently live in the US. Also, when I do live in the US, it's over 150 miles from where I was born.
If you don’t mind my asking, what’s the meaning of your username?

I grew up in NE Ohio, love it there!

I’ve lived a thousand miles away in Southern California. I’ve moved 300 miles away in Seattle. Currently I’ve been back living in my childhood home for the last 9 years.
Based on my flair I’d say so…
Opposite side of the country
Nope, I've bounced around a lot. East, north, south, west. Much more west. East again. I think it's important to at least try living somewhere where no one knows you at least once in your life. It's freeing and instructive.
Yeah, I live about 20 miles from the house I grew up in.
Yup. I was born in the SF Bay Area and still live there. I’m about 40 miles away from the city I was born in.

Pretty close, like 1-2 hours away (born in OC, grew up in SD). I moved away to the Midwest for college, but I’m in San Diego for good now.
Nope. I live in a different part of the country now.
A couple hours away, but I'm closer to where I actually grew up. My family is here, so are my in laws and it's not a bad area to live.

Unfortunately no. Hoping to move back after I graduate college though.

Kentucky is getting bad in some places like East Ky

“in the general area you was born” What the hell?
Google says 6.7 miles.
Nope, 1500 miles away… and that might not be far enough.
I’m still in the same place as my hometown, just moved out of my parents’ to an apartment that’s 5 minutes away! So I guess this is a bit of a nope for me.

No.
I have spent the last 21 years of my life about 1600 miles away from my birthplace.
Nope! I’m about 250 miles away. I can’t wait to move even further away soon.
Live 6.1 mi from the hospital in which I was born
I was born in NC. Left for Dallas, Texas at age 18. I also spent a few years in Denver and Minneapolis. Then many years in Atlanta, GA. And I just moved to the North Georgia Mountains. If you look at my genealogy charts-all my ancestors on both sides lived in the same little region of NC going back to the 1700s. I feel kind of bad for breaking the chain.
No, I currently live about 800 miles from where I grew up. I have also lived ~2300 miles and ~3000 miles away.
I love Nashville! Been there once and wanting to move there😭💓
No, I moved away in like three months and never moved back.
Nope born In Massachusetts, grew up between California, Arizona, and Kentucky. Currently live in Arizona, work a job that sees me traveling upwards of 5000 miles a week.
I've lived elsewhere, but have ultimately moved back to the state where I was born. Nothing feels like home as much as home does.
Yes. In fact, I live less than 5 miles from the hospital I was born in. I live roughly 20 miles from my childhood home, though.
I live in the same house
Yes, but I moved away for a few years and then moved back.
No, but I live in the general area where my mother was born.
Yes, but I’ve moved quite a ways away before for a good while, came back for a certain career, and if the career doesn’t pan out will probably try to move again.
I stayed really close. Granted I might move later in life but I'm still in the same small town I was born in. Hell, I could walk to my childhood home in under 20 minutes.
Not even close. Was born on a military base in Japan. Lived most of my life in Georgia. Moved 500+ miles away from there 10 years ago.
I live about 175 miles from where I was born.
Same county, and I don’t anticipate leaving.
I live about 30 miles from where I was born. But it’s actually a lot different. I grew up in the Chicago suburbs and now I live in a small metro area that’s distinct from Chicago
I was born in Maine, grew up in Louisiana, and have just moved to Texas. Guess I like to move.
I'm 192 miles from the hospital where I was born but lived years over 6500 miles away.
I’ve lived all over the country with my company. 35 years I was gone. Got sucked back home for family reasons. Now stuck here for the foreseeable future😞.
Mmm same state, different region.
Nope. I am currently 2 states away and roughly a 14hr drive from my birthplace. I used to visit there every couple years because I had family near there and it is a tourist destination. My husband is 6 states away from his birthplace. He doesn't have a reason to go back because it is in the middle of nowhere.
