Hey Pandas, How Many Times Have You Moved In Your Life?
I have moved 4+ times, 3+ times to different states. I think it's crazy when people say they have never moved houses.

Let's see - I can remember four addresses in California, two in Missouri, twelve in Florida, one in Wisconsin, one in Illinois, five more in Florida, plus countless address changes involved with being in the military...so, to add them all up: A LOT.

Just once. We moved to the other side of our very tiny city. I wasn't even 2 years old yet, and I don't remember our old house at all, so I've basically lived in the same house my whole life

I'm 41 and I've lived in the same house all my life. Never moved XD Though, I have been recently more-or-less living in a house my boyfriend's family owns, because I needed some boundaries/distance from my mother (who was suggesting I put my sick puppy to sleep.) I've been staying here for a year, but I still go home and check in with my family almost every day.

A total of ten times. 1) Home on the farm to college 2) From college back to the farm for a couple years 3) Got an apartment for my first job away from the area 4) New apartment in the same town (just down the hall from the first one) 5) into a townhouse 6) bought a house 7) laid off and moved to the DC area to follow employment 7) out of my first DC hole in the wall to another townhouse 8) rented a house with a longtime friend and his family to save money 9) moved to different rental house when the owner moved back into the first house 10) owner of new house wanted to move back in. At that point we said, Screw it, moving every 3 years is killing us physically and financially, so we bought our Forever Home.

Wow.... not sure if I can count that high. Both my parents were hippies (it was the 70's), and they split up when I was 6 months old. But when I got to be about 5 yrs. old or so I would spend every other year with my Dad. So I got to have a relationship with both parents thankfully. But it meant moving every year. This lasted until I got to high school, then my parents said they wanted me to spend high school in one place. On the flip side with my own kids I tried very hard to give them a very stable childhood, we have lived in the same basic area their entire lives and our current house for 20 years. I didn't dislike my childhood, I just wanted my kids to have the option of friends for more than a year at a time.

Once, and it was only for a few months. I temporarily moved out of state during my parents' divorce when I was in middle school. I moved back home and I remain in my childhood home today.
I never went away for college, and I took ownership of my house after my dad passed.
