How often have you moved?

[Green Gaia]

It will be 9 times after this summer when I move to Virginia.

 

[Ceridwen018]

3 times....in the same city!

The house I was born in, the house I grew up in, and the house I live in now. Needless to say, I want to get the heck outta here come college.

 

[Melody]

Are you talking moving from city to city or state to state? If I also include moving from various cities within a state, then I count 9 just since I moved out on my own. As a child we moved 5 times in one school year so I'm not even going to try and count those years.

 

[jewscout]

More times than i can remember...and yet i've still never lived anywhere outside of VA

 

[Lookingformeaning]

I have moved once, but I guess it doesnt really count because I just moved about 4-5 blocks away.
I guess that is pretty sad. lol

 

[Dinogrrl]

Move 1: From Abilene, TX, to Concord, NC (because of dad's job)
Move 2: rental house in Concord to our own house in Concord (because the rental house sucked and was in a really crowded part of the city)
Move 3: Concord to Harrisburg, NC (parents wanted a bigger, one-story house--ended up moving literally ten minutes south of our old house)

The rest of my moves have been school-related.
Move 4: Harrisburg to Durham, NC for last two years of high school at a residential school for higher learning
Move 5: Harrisburg to Rapid City, SD for college

And then this summer:
Move 6: Rapid City to Thermopolis, WY for my summer job

[Linus]

Including moving into and out of the dorms here in Florida, I have moved six times. Into the house I lived for the majority of my life thus far, into and out of the dorms, into an apartment for a summer while a new house was being built, into said house, and once more into the dorms. One more planned for the beginning of May when I move out of these dorms for the final time. .

I used to live in Aurora Ohio!!! I lived in Chatham Estates.

 

[QTpi]

I used to live in Aurora Ohio!!! I lived in Chatham Estates.

Wow! I know Chatham Estates quite well. I had friends that lived there. I lived in Aurora in the mid-70s (1973-1977), so I'm not sure that we were there at the same time. But you still seem like a neighbor!!!

 

[Master Vigil]

I lived later than you. It must have been... about 14 years ago.

 

[Feathers in Hair]

pah wins, I think.

Hehee, but are we going by total moves, or by moves- per- year lived?

(Not that this is a contest, but I agree that Pah probably wins if we're going for the first.)

 

[Dinogrrl]

um...I dunno whichever sounds the bestest.

 

[Scuba Pete]

Just today??? I seem to be glued to the couch!

But I have been in the same house now for 15 years.

 

[Feathers in Hair]

That's groovy, NetDoc! (I like your ribbons, by the way!)

Maybe we should start another thread to see who has lived in the same place the longest?
