I'm originally from a small farming town in NE Ohio, but DH and I live in a college town now. It's not bad in the summer, but miserable when school's in session.

Small town in southwestern Michigan. I wish I could show you exactly where on my hand. That's what I normally do!
Gotta love living in the mitten! I moved up here for undergrad and remember everyone introducing themselves that way when they would say where they were from. It seemed so strange at the time!
Haha I'm glad you understand!!! I wasn't sure anyone would!!
Gotta love the hand pointing...I'm from Northern Michigan. My sister lives in the Ann Arbor area, we're actually meeting halfway tomorrow to hang out for the day.

About 30 minutes outside of St. Louis, MO. Lived here my whole life so far and have continued to stay within 30-45minutes of the city throughout various moves.
But I did live in Bloomington, IN for college for a year and loved the college/small town feel.
Have lived in Sacramento, Berkeley, Nashville, and now the Raleigh area of NC.
I'm from RI. Where in MA are you from?
I am from Blackstone, close to Woonsocket but very different because my town is really not city-like at all (one stop light, maybe 10,000 people). We go back on occasion because my sister lives in Smithfield.
I'm from Central Arkansas but am now living in Northwest New Jersey. I also briefly lived in Lahaina, Maui about 8 years ago.
I loooved Lahaina! We were there last year. I'm jealous!
DH is a born and raised "local boy" and used to play sing in a Hawaiian band. All I can think of when I hear Lahaina is the song "In Lahaina, where the mangos are sweet, and the centipedes crawl all over your feet." LOL Lahaina would be an awesome place to live though.

Born and raised in a small town in Orange County, NY, near the NY-NJ-PA border (it's not at all upstate, but people from NYC or Long Island would say it is!). Went to college in Baltimore and with a few stops in between, I now live in Toronto.

Hold up, hobag. WHERE in ND? Did we go to college together? I went to UND. Graduated in 03. My sincerest apologies if you went to the other ND school .... poor thing. :::cryface:::
Nope, I actually went to MSU, but I lived in Fargo 'cause it was cheaper.
Where in ND you from? I know lots of peeps from ND.
I grew up in Bismarck. My family left just before my senior year, though, so I've been back maybe twice since graduating. (thankgod.)
Steph+J:
as a Gopher, my sincerest apologies to both of you for having to attend either ND school.
My sister's a Gopher, too. It's a miracle we still speak.

I didn't realize there were so many Michiganders on here! Love it!!
I have lived in a lot of places. FL, TX, CA, AR, AZ, and TN. I went to college in Fort Worth, TX and lived there for 12 years. We just moved to a town outside of Nashville last year.
Spent my high school years and a few years after college in the VA 'burbs of DC but have been living in southern Maine now for 10 years. My town is about 45 minutes away from either Portland, ME or Portsmouth, NH, and 90 minutes from Boston.
I grew up in a small town not far from Houston. I've lived in a few places most recently Sonoma, CA until May when we moved to Austin--hopefully to stay put for a while!

I am actually born and raised in the Quad Cities....its an area on the Mississippi comprised of cities in Illinois and Iowa. I don't actually claim Iowa, but for the sake of this post I will, just to be different.
