Re: GTKY: Where you live

  • What state do you live in?  (Or what Province for our Canadian mamas) Ontario (near Toronto)

    How long have you lived there? In Ontario, my entire life!  In my current town almost 10 years.

    What is your favorite thing about where you live? Small town feel outside of the city, close(ish) commute to all sorts of stuff.

    What is your least favorite thing about where you live? Traffic, poor transit, and inability to tolerate traffic in order to enjoy family cottages.

    What type of home do you live in? (Apt? Condo?  House? Houseboat?) We live in a semi-detached house.  Bought it over 9 years ago, thought we'd stay there for a few years.  But after lots of renos and great neighbours, we're in no rush to move (even with LO on the way).

    What is your favorite thing about your home? We have a great backyard for the area.  I love my kitchen.  DH renovated it for me about 5 years ago.

    If you could change one thing about your home, what would it be? I would like a garage.

    If you could live anywhere in the world for a year, where would it be? There's sooo many choices... we love to surf... so.... Costa Rica, Hawaii, Austraila, Dominican Republic, even Vancouver.

  • What state do you live in?  (Or what Province for our Canadian mamas)

    Massachusetts

    How long have you lived there?

    Massachusetts- my whole life (including college). I have been in my current town for about 3.5 years.

    What is your favorite thing about where you live?

    I love the proximity to the ocean.  We live about 15 minutes from the beach, which is great in the summer.  I also love being close to the city (Boston), and mountains/hiking (Western MA, New Hampshire, Vermont).

    What is your least favorite thing about where you live? 

    Boston traffic and cold, snowy winters. 

    What type of home do you live in? (Apt? Condo?  House? Houseboat?)

    We live is a Cape-style house we bought a month before our wedding.

    What is your favorite thing about your home?

    I love the open style of our kitchen/dining room/great room.  It feels especially open with the high, vaulted ceilings in the great room.

    If you could change one thing about your home, what would it be?

    As much as I love the great room space, the style isn?t really ours.  The walls are stucco and while we love the exposed beams, the ceiling is darker wood and kind of sucks up light.  Our style is more contemporary and airy (which is reflected in the rest of the house). Someday we?ll do that room over if we stay in the house.

    If you could live anywhere in the world for a year, where would it be?

    I?d choose London, Paris or New York City.

    How long have you lived there?  off and on my whole life

    What is your favorite thing about where you live?  My neighborhood is suburban, in the middle of a cornfield, 5 minutes from the city.  I have the best of all the worlds!

    What is your favorite thing about your home?  It's big and beautiful and my dream house

    If you could change one thing about your home, what would it be?  It would be clean.  I really need a maid because I'm so not good at keeping up on cleaning.  Oh and a bigger back yard and flatter driveway.  (my driveway is so steep my car slides down it in the winter when I'm trying to pull in)

    If you could live anywhere in the world for a year, where would it be? Absolutely no idea.  Prolly Australia or New Zealand.

    How long have you lived there? 13 years

    What is your favorite thing about where you live? We never run out of things to do (we live pretty close to DC)

    What is your favorite thing about your home?  Our townhouse is as big as my parent's single family house.  It's a great size for us.

    If you could change one thing about your home, what would it be?  Can I change two things?  The biggest issue I have with it is that we have a TON of stairs to walk up to our front door.  It's exhausting when I have to carry sleeping kids and am pregnant.  I also hate it when it snows or rains.  The other thing I would change is the size of our yard.  It works for now because my boys are young, but we are going to need more room for them to run and play soon.

    If you could live anywhere in the world for a year, where would it be? Somewhere warm and tropical!  I'm trying to convice DH to move to FL, but that would be for many years, not just one.

  • What state do you live in?  Texas

    How long have you lived there? Just over a year. Spent the rest of my life in California.

    What is your favorite thing about where you live? Having moved from a smaller city, I love all the options available in a larger city. Plus, house-hunting is a lot funner on a budget here in Texas, especially when compared to California.

    What is your least favorite thing about where you live? The humidity. Heat I can handle, but the humidity is gonna kill me, I swear.

    What type of home do you live in? Renting a house currently.

    What is your favorite thing about your home? The big backyard and decent-sized bedrooms (all 3 kids will be sharing a room and I'm not a bit concerned about having enough room for everything)

    If you could change one thing about your home, what would it be? The landlord did a lot of the work themselves and it shows. My biggest issue is the used the cheapest paint they could find and didn't prime it at all or even wash the walls before painting, so the paint comes off whenever I try to wipe even fingerprints off the walls. I have 2 preschoolers, my walls are disgusting and I'm afraid to wash them too much.

    If you could live anywhere in the world for a year, where would it be? My first thought is "home" where my family is, but I'd hate to have to leave again. It was hard enough saying goodbye to family the first time. So, since that's not an option, I'd love to live on the East coast for a bit, North Carolina or Pennsylvania. Or, even go abroad to the UK for awhile.

    About a yr & a half

    Close by lots of things to do without being too close- 20 minutes from Charoltte, 1 hr from the mountains, 3 hrs from Charleston, SC

    Even though we aren't in a small town, there is nothing to do without going to another city.

    Apt for now. We are saving up for a house and will be putting a down payment on one in about a year.

  • What state do you live in? (Or what Province for our Canadian mamas) New York

    How long have you lived there? almost 10 years in NYC, 9 months so far in Long Island

    What is your favorite thing about where you live? We're really close to lots of fun stuff, like the beach and wineries.  

    What is your least favorite thing about where you live? We're almost an hour away from our friends Brooklyn. Also, I really miss being able to walk everywhere.

    What type of home do you live in? (Apt? Condo? House? Houseboat?) A colonial style home with an attached accessory apartment.

    What is your favorite thing about your home? We have a 0.5 acre plot, which is really rare in the NYC metro area. Also, the income from the accessory apartment pays our property taxes, which is awesome!

    If you could change one thing about your home, what would it be? I wish we had a finished basement, but it's on the list of home improvements! Also, our bedrooms are kind of small, and I wish we had 4 instead of 3.

    If you could live anywhere in the world for a year, where would it be? Hmmm tough one! DH can retire from the police force in 14 years, and we've been talking about maybe going to Florida after he retires. I really like the Philadelphia area (where I grew up), but we're very happy where we are now, so maybe right here?!
