How far do you live from where you were born and raised?

[scooby_doo_m2002]

I was born in the nearest hospital at the time in Bedford, IN (which is 29miles away)

I was raised at the same place my parents live today in Loogootee, IN

I live about 1/4 mile from my parents.


Well, Now that you know a lil about me, what about you?

[hanabi]

Oh Blimey!!

I was born and raised (the old fashioned way)
in Kingston Upon Hull - affectionally called 'Ull' by the natives!!

I now live about 30 mins away in the little Seaside Town that time forgot called Hornsea......

So I guess I didn't stray too far.....

Well I was born at Bradford Royal Infirmary some 36 years ago. Bradford is in West Yorkshire, in the UK. I still live in Bradford & both my 2 daughters were also born at Bradford Royal Infirmary, so I guess I have never strayed far....

I was born at Our Lady Of Lords Hospital in Camden NJ, and was raised in Camden NJ till I got out of that hell hole at the age of 20. I live in Hamilton NJ now about 40 miles north of where I was born. I still visit Camden often, because I have alot of family there, although most of my family has moved out.

The UK isn't big enough to live too far away but I live far enough from my parents and in-laws to avoid arguments as to who sees my twin daughters the most.

[dattia]

I was born in Philadelphia but was raised in the small town of Pottstown PA. West Chester is about 30 minutes from there...not too far

[daverob]

I live about 4 miles from the hospital I was born in, and around two miles away from the home I grew up in.

Only downside is that when I decided to stay in my hometown and buy my own house, the rest of the family moved away so now I have to travel nearly 300 miles to see them

I was born and raised in Chicago until I was 38 years old.

After visiting beautiful sunny Bradenton, Florida in march I saw the light and moved here in june of that year. that was 28 years ago.

1,000 miles away from my birth place

[slotter]

Born in a NW suburb of Chicago. Moved to Iowa, where my Dad lived as a kid, moved to Scottsdale -- then Tucson -- then Phoenix, AZ, moved to San Antonio, TX and finally moved back to Iowa to retire and to bring up our daughter.

Since there were a bunch of members for the Chicago area I’ll include the local neighborhood names. I was born in 1966 on the NW side of Chicago at Illinois Masonic Hospital. It was only 2 ½ miles from my home. My parents decided to retire to Hudson Beach Florida when I was only 17. I refused to leave the city. I still live on the NW side of Chicago in a neighborhood called Logan Square. It is about a mile south of where I grew up. I have no intentions right now of ever moving from here so I guess it’s safe to say I was born, lived and will die in Chicago.

Logan Square, I remember it well, it used to be the last stop for the subway.

I lived near Keeler Ave. and Milwaukee Rd. I went to Saint Viator's grade school and Schurz High school about 2 miles from there.

There was a great pizza and rib place in the Logan Square area.

Now the subway goes all the way to O'hare airport. My brothers and sisters all went to Schurz in the 70's. I lucked out and got sent to St. Patricks HS. The best pizza in the area then and now has to be Father and Son's. They have ribs but I've never tried them. I like the broasted chicken they have and they still have the best thin crust pizza.
