GTKY - Where are you from?

In light of quite a few TX moms connecting the dots in Randoms, I thought this might be a nice intro thread for us newbies.
Where were you born & raised?
Where are you living now?
Would you like to live anywhere else?

Re: GTKY - Where are you from?
Where are you living now? Oregon!
Would you like to live anywhere else? Mostly MH and I talk about buying a secluded piece of land somewhere to start a small farm. We will probably do that in Oregon because we love it here but we also dream about maybe Nova Scotia, Australia or New Zealand if we had the means.
Where are you living now? Still living in a suburb of Richmond, VA, they have great schools here and all of our family is here so we’ve decided to stay put for now.
Would you like to live anywhere else? Hubby and I have talked about moving elsewhere, but he doesn’t want to leave his big family behind. However, we don’t see them but once a month anyway so things wouldn’t change much if we moved. I have a wanderer’s heart so I would love to live in a new city every year... he thinks I’m crazy!
Born in Vermont raised in Mississippi
Where are you living now?
Just South of Houston, TX
Would you like to live anywhere else?
When H and I graduated high school we moved to Tallahassee, FL for college. We stayed there nearly 7yrs and will always consider it home! If H's job ever allowed we would move back in a heartbeat.

Where are you living now? New Hampshire
Would you like to live anywhere else? Our ultimate goal is to eventually migrate to NC or surrounding states and live pretty self sufficiently, homesteading and such.
Where are you living now? Living on the Kenai Peninsula in Alaska, but the road here involved stops in Florida, Tennessee, New Orleans, and Las Vegas 2x.
Would you like to live anywhere else? I think my gypsy heart has finally found her home. Now we are looking to buy and homestead 1-5 acres of land closer to my school.
If it were feasible though I would love to teach and farm in Ireland. That would be a dream, returning "home" to the counties my ancestors left during the potato famine.
Where are you living now? Live in Spring Hill, FL
Would you like to live anywhere else? I absolutely love our house, so it would take a lot for me to move. My in laws are 10 minutes from us and my parents are about 45 minutes away. DHs job will pretty much keep us in this area, so we are staying put.
Where are you living now? Right outside of San Antonio
Would you like to live anywhere else? I would have to have a pretty good reason. Love our home.
Where are you living now? Seattle, we moved here in July for DH's job
Would you like to live anywhere else? While we are loving the change of scenery, I am an east coast girl and my whole family is in VA. Our plan is to stay here for 3 years and then move back somewhere in VA or NC where we have a little land.
Living now: still Iowa. Just about 90 minutes from my home town.
Anywhere else: a few years ago I would have said anywhere! Now, I’m pretty happy with how things have fallen into place. I lived in England when I was younger and loved that I had a chance to travel then. If we ever did move, I think we would end up in Alaska.
Where are you living now? Chicago Suburbs
Would you like to live anywhere else? I love our house and our town, but would consider moving somewhere with land to build a homestead and live a little more naturally/freely if the stars ever aligned.
Where are you living now? Right outside NYC in North Jersey
Would you like to live anywhere else? Depends on the day. This is the best city to do what I do for a living.... but then I dream of quiet and space.
Where are you living now? Dallas, TX
Would you like to live anywhere else? I met DH in culinary school in NY and we lived in NYC for about 7 years. I’d love to live there again but not with kiddos. We came to TX to start a family bc my whole giant family lives here and his parents moved to our neighborhood about a year ago. I couldn’t imagine raising my kids w/o they help of my family. Grandparents make EXCELLENT babysitters!! And cousins are the best friends
Where are you living now? I live in Wichita, Kansas
Would you like to live anywhere else? I’d love to live in Washington some day soon.
Where are you living now? Medford, NY (Still Long Island)
Would you like to live anywhere else? I would love to live in Tennessee
Where are you living now? NC
Would you like to live anywhere else? My family thinks I’m crazy, but I really want to get back to Houston some day. Or maybe Austin or San Antonio. I miss the food and the weather in TX terribly. MH is less enthusiastic because his parents are here in NC (but 2 hours away), and he’s never lived anywhere else.
Where do you live now? Colorado
Would you like to live anywhere else?
I would love to move back to California
Where were you born & raised? St. Louis suburbs
Where are you living now? St. Louis City
Would you like to live anywhere else? Madison and Denver are on our shortlist, but moving seems unlikely
Where do you live now? Same!
Would you like to live anywhere else?
Would love to live somewhere warmer... more South would be lovely but can’t see us moving out of Canada and would hate to leave all my family and in-laws.
Where are you living now? DMV area, on the NOVA side
Would you like to live anywhere else? Personally, I'd love to live in CA. The COL there is just as much, or less, than where we are currently living, but the lifestyle and weather are more my jazz. Sadly, both my and DH career tracks mean the DMV is probably where we will be until retirement.
Where are you living now? Wake Forest, NC
Would you like to live anywhere else? Nope! I love NC..we have the beach, the mountains and are halfway between NYC and FL.
Where are you living now? Frederick, MD (not too far outside DC)
Would you like to live anywhere else? We'd love to be closer to family but our jobs our here and so we'll probably never leave.
Where are you living now? Meridian, MS
Would you like to live anywhere else? No idea, DH and I have lived in quite a variety of places and while I do love living in the South I'm open to almost anything.
@nopegoat - where in MS did your family live?

I was born, and continue to live in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada! I now own a business here and have a super great community of friends, musicians, and family so I’m unlikely to move anytime soon! Retirement plan is vaguely to move more rural and homestead, but for now we’re living that urban farming life.
If we stay here long enough for our kids to go to school they would end up at Poplar Springs Elementary school then we would probably move to West Lauderdale for middle/high school. Although since we average moving every 3-5 years I doubt any of that will happen!
I know what it's like to have a baby with no family around so if you ever need anything let me know. We have lots of family there and I know they wouldn't mind helping in any way they could.

I will definitely reach out if we need some help, I appreciate your offer more than you could ever know!
Where are you living now? Still central Illinois but a couple hours from where i was raised
Would you like to live anywhere else? This area is where family is, so it's where we will stay but if family weren't in the discussion, I would move somewhere warmer in a heartbeat. That might mean leaving DH though since claims to like cold weather. We both enjoy northern CA and the PacNW, so I guess I'll vote for that and keep DH.
