@loveinak This is going to sound so stupid but I swear, every time I have ever seen your username, I've confused Arkansas and Alaska's state abbreviations and so I saw your post and was like, "Wait what" and self-face-palmed so hard.
@canavara Ha!! That's okay- not stupid at all- it happens all the time! Alaska!! I'm not sure I'd pass a test if I had to identify all state abbreviations.
We currently live in Texas, near Dallas. But I am from Northern California, I've lived all over the Bay Area! We may be moving soon, our apt. Lease is up a month after baby is due, we may try to break it to move before we have a screaming munchkin and disabled mama. Lol
Born and raised in Bowling Green, OH then moved in the middle of my Junior year of high school to a suburb near Columbus, OH where I met my hubby in our Senior year. Went back to BG for college then back to Columbus. I love living in Central Ohio and could never go back to small town living.
I'm from Michigan,metro Detroit. I've moved around this area a lot but we bought our forever home in 2014 a whopping 1.5 miles from the house I grew up in my kids will go to all of the same schools that I did!
I'm a metro Detroiter too! I was born in Ohio but have lived in Michigan since I was 11. I've moved around a lot in the past 10 years with college and all but always within a half hour radius.
I'm originally from southwestern Michigan - now I live on the other side of the lake, in Chicago! We'll be moving this summer (ready to stop renting) but will be staying in the city; I really want to avoid moving to the 'burbs if at all possible. Hopefully staying in the city with kids will be a financially viable option.
DH is originally from metro Detroit.

I'm from southeastern Wisconsin, in a town called Menomonee Falls. Hubs and I are getting ready to move to a small town called Jackson because I do not want to have a child in an apartment. We moved while we were planning a wedding, why not move while pregnant! (totally not a glutton for punishment).

Chicago is really the bees knees. We have tons of friends that have moved there since college (typical of this part of the state) and visit at least once if not twice a year. We're planning a little family trip there this fall. I was supposed to run the Chicago marathon this year but as you could probably guess I'm not now, lol.
I love in southern California but grew up outside of philadelphia. I moved 8 yrs ago and doubt I'll ever go back. Too settled! And definitely not moving while pregnant.
I don't see any other MA people but my DH and I were both born and raised in Gloucester, MA and still live here. I don't plan on going anywhere! I travel a lot for work and I still am always excited to come home! So beautiful here.
I haven't posted my GTKY answer yet but I'm from MA! Western part.
Western MA here. I live 2 minutes from the city I grew up in. I don't plan on moving while pregnant but definitely need to move in general. Where I live now, I would rather my kids not go to the public schools here.... Lol
I've been on vacation so I'm a bit behind! I'm originally from the great city of Rochester, NY, went to college in DC and have lived in London, England for 7 years now. Husband and I want to move to America (especially after Brexit!), so I'm hoping to sort him out a green card (he's British) and have an inter company transfer (work for an American company) post maternity leave. Not sure where in the US as my company is on both coasts so we'll see. 2017 could be a very busy year for us...
I was born in Venezuela! But I grew up very north of Tampa, FL. I went to college at Florida State and upon graduation received a job offer in St. Petersburg, FL. I now live again in the Tampa Bay Area. My fiancée is from Georgia, he went to college in TN, and moved to Tampa about 3 years ago. We met at a Tampa Bay Lightning game! Go BOLTS

Wow! I'm surprised at how little representation the greater NYC area has here! Born in DC raised for the greater part of my life in the northeast and settled in northern NJ area.

Semi-new here but I'm also from the NYC area! Was born in Westchester County, lived in CT for a while growing up, went to college in MA, then moved to NYC for a few years before settling down in the burbs. My husband is also from Westchester, but lived in DC for about 5 years after college.
