Ask Lemmy

I'm a single digit number of miles from the place I was born, but I do not consider the town it is in to be "home" as it is in a neighboring town.

100km now, but even though i say I’m from there, i have no family and barely any acquaintances left. Still can do the dialect, though, if i make an effort. Usually don’t. And in a couple of years, I’ll move hundreds or thousands of kilometres away. Again.

~230 kilometers. I'm home now. That's not home. Left there at age 13.

13,300 km (8,264 mi) away from "spawn point", ~14,000 km from "home".

I have been about 4500 miles away for most of my life, but I was home sick so I moved closer and I am now only 1500 miles away from spawn.

I am less than a mile from the hospital I was born in. Like some middle ages peasant.

The city grew up with me, or I grew up with it; when I was young there was not much to do and it was quite violent. Through my life it has become vibrant and safer, not that I had anything to do with it. Now there is so much to do, beautiful parks, concerts, downtown came back to life.

I have visited other places, for months at a time before I had kids, and shorter trips after. But here actually is home, it's funny. I wouldn't have dreamed it when I was a little kid.

2208 km, moved when I was in my early 20s. Still have friends and family there so I visit occasionally, but I have no desire to move back.

My house is about 2 miles away from the hospital where I was born but only a couple of meters from the spot where the house my parents lived in when I was born used to stand, which means there's a good chance I can see the spot where I was conceived from my upstairs window.

I live 2.2 miles/3,5 km from my childhood home but have lived as far away as 4,383 miles/7.053 km away. Yes, I would consider my hometown as my current home.

6.5 km from my appartment to the hospital I was born in.

I was born in the neighboring city, currently live in the district that is closest to said city. However I grew up in a village 90km from here. My parents moved out of the city when I was 2. I lived in several different cities, even on a different continent for a while. A couple of years ago I moved here for a job and 5 years ago my now-husband and I found this appartment together which happens to be on the border of our city that is closest to the city I was born in.

A few hundred miles. And no i dont belong in this world.

13,245 km from spawn point, but home is always where my wife and cats are

I'm more than a thousand miles away and it never felt like home. The few times I've been back reinforced my decision to leave.

Hard to say, as my "spawn point," was decommissioned a few years ago, and is currently being dismantled. I suspect the medical deck is long gone from the ship.

"Home" has, for me, always referred to where I currently live.

About 6k km, vertically. Basically went from the middle of the planet to the tip.

About 30 miles. I guess I'd consider it local, but I've never considered that specific town home.

Just checked on the map. There's a stretch of about 11 miles that I consider to be home. I lived most of my life smack in the middle of that stretch .So about 5 and a half miles radius?

about a 58 hour walk right now but at timed I am >10,000 miles out

500km... About 4 hours. Was never home though.

I am 9.4km away from where I was born, in a different city, and I don't consider where I was born my home.

So many location based questions here lately. Little sus ngl
