I'm from Vermont, I love the autumn here and having lots of room to spread out! I also really enjoy the food...cheese, Ben & Jerry's, and maple everything!

reesaXden

I'm from Indiana! Normally, I would say I love all four seasons, I love the changes! But..... This year has been so screwed up!! It's been up to 70 at one point this month! What the heck?! I want my cold temps and snow.... Until March.

I am from WA state. It's amazing here. I'm 30 min from mountains, 30 min from lakes, 30 min from salt water, an hour from the ocean, an hour and a half from a big city. It's the perfect place. Great food, great beer and amazing wine

Denver over here! I'm originally from the east coast, so being in such a laid back, friendly city has been great. I love that we're surrounded by nature and I get to see the mountains every single day.

I'm in Alaska. I live on an island with about 2,000 other people. It's small, and I like it that way! Surrounded by nature. I have a wonderful ocean view, and a community that cares!

Texas girl here! Not my most favorite place in the world to live, but I have a huge family and they are all really close by.  And we're all popping kiddos out left and right. 4 boys, not including the new bun, all in the last 3 years.  We joke that we're growing a baseball team

I'm from southern WI originally but have lived in the Chicago suburbs for the past 10 years. I love the food here - so much better than small town WI - and that we're also relatively close to all of our family still in WI too!

CClark2014

DH and I are both originally from CA and now live in Missouri. I wouldn't say we love it, but both of our parents moved here also.

Kristin15172004

I'm from Northwest Ohio..and I can't stand it!!! The city I'm in is going downhill very fast! The only reason we are still here is our families. We are looking into moving a little more south or even more north into MI. We lived in WA a few years back and LOVED it! We moved back once we found out we were expecting DD and Ive dreamed about moving back ever since. I don't think I can convince my entire family to move there, so I guess we are stuck here lol.

We're in MB and I was thinking the same thing @Alyeena!

Emillz5

I'm from Oklahoma! I love it just because I grew up here, and everyone is usually really nice and friendly around here. But I don't love the crazy weather

I live in Greenville Ohio...still getting use to this place after 2 years of being here (originally from Las Vegas) I guess I like that I'm a short drive to Chicago ha

Born and raised in Chicago. Now we live in a suburb just outside of Chicago.

@LizC Hello from the Northwest Suburbs! Happy to "meet" a fellow Chicagoland Bumpie!

FireInWonderland

I'm originally from a small town called Vandergrift, PA, but when I joined the Navy and met DH and got out of the Navy, I wound up in El Paso, where DH (he's in the Army) is stationed. I actually hate the city itself, the weather is terrible and many of the people are standoffish, especially if you don't speak Spanish. But the food is great around here, and they have a great pole fitness studio to feed my pole workout addiction!

MegPete

I live in Northern Utah but have California roots

FunkyColdMomma

I'm from the Chicagoland area and while the weather is not why we choose to stay, we are so lucky to have family here which I why I love it. DH and I both have large extended families and all are in the various suburbs (siblings, cousins, aunts, everyone). This means several large family get togethers over the holiday so I feel like I'm still in recovery mode from running around but wouldn't change it.

I live in NS, Canada.

persingerma

Rhode Island, though we've only been here about a year and a half. We were in NC before that.

RedMar

New York (upstate) here!! Born and raised so there are plenty of family members and friends around. Not the greatest weather, but this winter has been kind to us so far!

I'm from Vermont and live deep in the woods. My favorite part is the solitude and the mountains. I'm a 6th gen. Vermonter and I have no plans on leaving, even though I absolute detest winter.
