Where you live vs. Where you grew up
How many here live as independent adults in the same town that they grew up in? Do you like this sort of stability and sense of community? Do you want to get away?

If my home town (Ottumwa, IA) had any "real" jobs to offer I might have stayed. It would have been nice to stay close to my extended family.

Grew up in Iowa, have lived in California a total of 13 years now. I don't plan on living in California forever, but I'm not going back to Iowa.
Would consider Texas (again), Colorado, Missouri/Kansas, North/South Carolina, Georgia, or Virginia. |

Grew up in Wichita, the true Mid-West. Moved to Chicago for a job 17 years ago, and I don't consider it the Mid-West even though they all call it that.
We are going to retire in Missouri in a couple years. |

I marked "same region" since we moved all over Washington and Oregon when I was a kid. I went to high school in Silverton and Salem, OR, so I consider that "where I grew up" but I'm 500 miles away in a different state and don't really think I would ever want to move back.
If I had to move and could get a job there, I would love to live in the Bend/Redmond area of eastern Oregon.. |
