I have moved 6 times in 4 different states due to my father’s job transfers and lateral moves. This will be subject to change as my mom and I (sadly without my dad this time since he passed) are going to move to Tennessee by summer’s end and make a new start… making it a possible 7th time and the 5th state that I’ll live in.

Kentucky, West Virginia, Alabama, Virginia, and hopefully Tennessee!

Many times. It's hard to imagine living a life without any form of movement, especially since a lot of our movements are voluntary.

@Video_Game_King: You're such smartass. =-P Really, how many places/homes have you lived in?

@Tireyo643:

Not counting the boarding school of my youth, just my castle.

#7 Posted by clumsyninja1 (612 posts) - 1 year, 9 days ago

Definitively in double digits...

@xobballox: Well, it looks like I forgot a number! Dammit.

#9 Posted by AjayRaz (12249 posts) - 1 year, 9 days ago

@Video_Game_King: Do you have a big or a small castle?

Louisiana > Florida > Texas > Germany > Florida > 10 months traveling around > California

#12 Posted by Tireyo643 (5686 posts) - 1 year, 9 days ago

@hoossy: Why did you go to Germany?

#13 Posted by Video_Game_King (29201 posts) - 1 year, 9 days ago

@Tireyo643:

It's pretty large.

#14 Posted by Sparklykiss (1832 posts) - 1 year, 9 days ago

I've moved twice and I was barely old enough to remember the second one pretty well.

I can agree with you on that.

I've never moved, although I'm planning on getting an apartment closer to the city.

This is why I still come to these forums. For stuff like this from The King.

Stepfather was transferred there by the Air Force, for 5 years. Luckily I was old enough to really get something out of the experience. I am very grateful for it.

#23 Posted by Tireyo643 (5686 posts) - 1 year, 9 days ago

@hoossy: Would you want to go back to Germany to live there, or are you happy with where you live now?

#24 Edited by Simplexity (1324 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

My mom is basically a pile of human garbage and unfortunately I had to live with her my entire childhood so that meant we moved a lot, every year pretty much, so many step dads... One guy was a martial artist!

I have been sitting here counting for a while and I believe the final tally I came up with was 17, which ain't bad.

#25 Posted by JJOR64 (18113 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

I've moved once when I was 2 and been living in the same house since. Might be moving out sometime this year and moving in with my Dad.

#26 Posted by Animasta (12743 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

8. Portland,Gresham, Salem (two places there), Reno, Eugene (two places there), Las Vegas (two places here)

Never moved. Once I was about to, but didn't happen.

Good luck in Tenesse Tyreo.

Earl Shilton, Leicestershire -> Barlby, North Yorkshire -> Selby, North Yorkshire -> Parksville, Vancouver Island. Best was Selby, which is surprising seeing as it's the shittiest place.

#31 Posted by nintendoeats (5970 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

Many. Across continents.

#32 Posted by RoyCampbell (1067 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

Once, back in April when my house was foreclosed.
 
Worst day, I'm tellin' you.

#33 Posted by Turambar (5725 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

Shanghai to San Fran, San Fran to San Fran, San Fran to New York, New York to New York, New York to New York, New York to Madison.
 
I predict a seventh move once I get my masters, but that's a few years more off.

Once when I was three. I quite like not having moved much as a kid.

#35 Posted by Tim_the_Corsair (3065 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

Moved before I was 1, then moved again three weeks ago.

That's sort of technically incorrect, as my fiancée and I lived together somewhere else for quite a while before we moved in with my parents for a year to save up, but that arrangement was never really formalised into a move.

I've only ever lived in Sydney, Australia, as well.

#36 Edited by Hamst3r (3933 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

I moved 5 times within California and now I'm in Colorado.

#37 Posted by Bwast (1314 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

Faro>Whitehorse>Aroostook>Lynn Lake>Wabush. I've lived in Wabush for about 12 years now. Lots of moving when I was young.

#38 Posted by MariachiMacabre (5340 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

3 times in 2 years

#39 Posted by SpikeSpiegel (6816 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

My father is in the military, which has made us move around a quite a few times, but not nearly as much as the average military family.

#40 Posted by PenguinDust (12091 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

7 or 8 times over the course of my life.

#41 Posted by iam3green (14380 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

once but i don't really consider it as i was only a baby. the house that i live right now is really only place i know.

#42 Posted by JaredA (746 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

I've moved a total of 3 times (once when I was about 2 so I don't know if that counts).

Born in Florida, moved to Oregon.

#43 Posted by PerryVandell (2092 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

None, but I've learned it sucks ass from helping other people move.

#44 Posted by light_grenade (118 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

That happened to me on New Year's Day, only my parents jumped all over the county we live in trying to find a comparable living to the one they lost. This was not fun. They finally *seemed* to have learned their lesson when we were forced to live in a tiny house with what they suspected were drug deals going down across the street.

Anyway, let me try to tally it. The apartment I was born in, the house they moved into soon after, the next house that I spent most of my single-digit years in, then the house that got foreclosed on, then four more moves. So that's eight in total, all in the same little county in North Carolina.

#47 Posted by Slay3r1583 (492 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

Never. I've had the same bedroom in the same house for all of my 29 years. Honestly the though of moving someplace else kind of frightens me.

#48 Posted by superpow (213 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

Technically once. When i was a few months old. I'll probably be moving out next year though.

#49 Posted by FTomato (208 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

Central Israel -> London -> Central Israel -> San Jose -> San Jose -> Central Israel -> Central Israel -> North Israel

#50 Posted by Morrow (1793 posts) - 1 year, 8 days ago

I've moved only once so far, out of my father's home into my own appartment. I like it there, and I really don't like the thought of moving again.
