Ask Lemmy

Around 20km from the town I was born in. Never lived there though, so it's not really my home but definitely part of my home region. I do currently live in the village and house I grew up in, which I would consider as 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.

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.

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

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.

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

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.

Right now I’m 9.8 miles away. Looking up how far away from it I live…looks like 10 miles. So now I’m wondering if I just spend my life rotating in a 10 miles away radius from my spawn point.

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.

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

I'm almost at the antipode of my spawn point but I moved here late enough in life that, while the rest of my household call here home, I still think of my birthplace as home. Some days it's hard.

A bit over 1200 miles. Haven't been to Texas since before i could read, once got close enough in Oklahoma to seat the GIANT WALL OF HEAT to the south and promptly said fuck that. No desire to ever be there.

285 miles, 459 km. But no, absolutely not. My home town is where I grew up, not where I was born.

Looks like 1126 miles. I had to guess the hospital, though. It was never home. Probably left within days never to return.

Other than that, lived my whole life within a 12 mile diameter except when I was in the Army and a 5 year stint in DC.

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.

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

So many location based questions here lately. Little sus ngl

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.
