Place of birth: Bronx, NY.
Current residence: La Costa, California.

I would never leave the San Diego area. Where else can you go an entire year without having to use your heat or your air conditioning?
Then have them

I heard 72% of adults live within 20 miles of where they grew up. How far are you from home?
Born in Kingston, Jamaica, grew up in Brooklyn NY, now live in Indian land SC (just south of Charlotte), distance from Brooklyn to Indian Land = 648 miles. In between (at least two years residence) Grinnell IA, Iowa City IA, Twin Cities Area MN, New Haven CT, Bayonne NJ, Durham NC, Milwaukee WI, Louisville KY (7 years), Terre Haute IN, Columbus OH, Savannah GA, back to Iowa City, Pyeongtaek S. Korea (7.5 years) and then to the NC/SC area. Louisville and S. Korea the two longest stays. For my wife it's 7809 miles (Huangshi, Hubei to SC)

Looks like the 'yarders are the exception...

But I comfortably fit:

Both my first apt on Decatur Ave in the Bronx and my adolescent house on 178th St in Flushing/Fresh Meadows/Jamaica Estates North....are within 15 miles of my Greenwich Village apt (we're happy to be back after a nearly 2 year exile in Vermont)

Although I must admit to enjoying that (St J) as well...I probably could live anywhere, having been happy in Wellington and Aukland NZ, and Beijing and Xiamen, China.as well as many places we've traveled to...especially most of Italy.

Bald Huskie: are you in hotel/restaurant management...given your college up here?
Was, future wife convinced me to transfer to University of New Haven and into Business course. Had a chance to attend UNLV for restaurant/Hotel management, but she was too convincing. Sometimes I wonder "what if". LOL
