How far do you live from your childhood hometown?

[Chicken Drummer]

I would say 2.5 miles away.

I live in a suburb of the town I was born in. The town that I grew up in is about 70 miles south of me.

My parents lived in Chicago but I was born in Park Ridge, a suburb. I live in downtown Chicago, so pretty much right there. It was a circuitous route, though, from a childhood with extended family in Michigan to foster homes, halfway houses, institutions, and group homes in the burbs and the city until I was an adult.

Pretty happy overall to be here in the city

I've lived 120 km away, in Copenhagen, for the past 11 years. But in 2 weeks I'm moving back to my hometown, I bought an affordable house there.

[Marakara]

A couple miles, but I'm about to move 2800 miles away!

[Fencers]

Exactly 898 miles.

[Kerrion]

230 miles away. I moved to a whole another part of the country for college and kinda stayed there. Getting home for holidays is a pain.

[Doffen]

My dads kin is from where I live now, so halfway home, but its 30 minutes away from where we lived when I was a kid. 40 km away approx.

Edit: Sorry, thought my previous post didn't send.

I'll add that I'll be probably moving away to another country anyway so this distance is going to get even greater.

[Lord Pebbleton]

Too freaking close. Thanks covid for preventing me to leave this shithole

I would say 2.5 miles away.

Are you doing some kind of research? Why are you asking?

[Ragnarohk]

9,688 km

Used to google maps function to calculate the distance between 2 places.
