how many times...

I was born and raised in the same house in Chicago, IL. I was almost 16 when I moved to the burbs, but I still "want to go home" sometimes. I will always consider Chicago home.

CAMSMOM1 replied: I"ve moved 6 times. When I was 2 yrs old we moved....then I lived in one house until I was 16 years old. Then my Mom remarried, so I moved into her new house. Moved out 3 months later with my Dad, then he & I moved 3 times. And then I got married & Justin and I bought a house together, so I moved again. I hate moving, it's so stressful. But the place I call home growing up was with my Mom, since I lived there until I was 16. And of course, the house I live in now is my home. But we are thinking about moving again, in a couple of years.

As a child we never moved - I lived in the same house for 18.5 years (my parents are still there today). When DH and I were married - we lived in many different homes -- but all within 30 mins of each other. For 6 months we lived in the country...then spent 6 months near a large city...then spent 1 year back in the counrty....then lived in an apartment in a very busy city-like area for 2 years. We moved to our house (sort-of in the suburbs) and we've been here for 10 years now. I guess I call this 'area' home.

This is just a city to city/state list. You could add a few apartments in college and a move within our town here in Idaho, if you wanted to get technical.
I still consider Wyoming my "home", even though my family has all left except Grammy.
~~*Missi*~~ replied: Home is by my family (mom dad grandma) I have moved well over 20 times. Seriously if I sat down and wrote them all out and thought hard I could remember but i know its above 20
~Roo'sMama~ replied: I've moved seven times, all within the same town except the last move where we moved to a town 23 miles away. I had never moved until I moved out of my parents house when I was almost 19.
C&K*s Mommie replied: I had to pull out the calculator for this j/k.... 12 total. But we lived in a total of 4 town/cities. All within Fl, except for when I was born in TN.
ETA: Right here is my home, NW FL. Although I still want to move to either NC (Chris' dream growing up was to live there) SC (not sure why though) or GA ( )
My3LilMonkeys replied: Twice. Live in the same house with my parents until I was 19, then moved in with DH in our first rented place. Next move was 8 months later to our current home. Both of DH & my's homes are in the same town and my parent's house is just in the next town over though.
Right here is home and always will be!
Crystalina replied: I was an Army brat so, Lord, we moved alot. We lived in Germany, Texas, Hawaii, Indiana, Kentucky, Florida (YUCK), New York (the Bronx). Alot of states in the east. I can't remember them all because we didn't always stay long. I was ALWAYS the new kid in school.
My family is German/Puerto Rican (a lovely combonation ) so we frequented mostly Germany and Puerto Rico.
I call Ohio home though because this is where my family finally stopped and where I met my DH and this is definately where we intend to stay.
It's funny because when I was younger we traveled everywhere and my DH never left Ohio. Now that we are married I'm the one that never leaves and he travels everywhere.
Nina J replied: About twice when I was a kid, I moved from my parents place to an apartment when I finished school. I moved into Chris' little house when we got married, then we brought our current house. I don't think we will move anytime soon because I love this place.
So that's 5 times.

kayla's mama replied: Missouri to Virginia Virginia to MO (we moved back)
Then I got married and moved to TN and now I'm in MS.
I will always think of MO as my home....my whole family lives there
amymom replied: I never lived anywhere but in New York State. However, I have moved 9 times since I have been married. I live about 350 miles from 'home'. We are in the house my DH grew up in. When I got married I moved out of my parent's house which they built 2 yrs before I was born. Now that my parents are gone, my brother, his wife and two dd's live there. That is home. Here is my new home. I am in upstate NY.
