I've lived in 13 homes, including apartments. I saw an advertisement which asserted Americans live in 11 homes on average in one lifetime.

I'm only in my early 30's.

How many homes have -you- lived in?
12 or so, but most of that is because of college...

2 while growing up
2 while not in undergrad
rest in undergrad...

OMG?! 😳 I come from a military family and we moved so much that it's just impossible for me to remember. It was so hard to have a friend because we'd always have to move.💔

Hi there!! Long time no see!!

4. Ive only lived in 4 houses. ( but im a Brit....so that statistic doesnt inclued me)
The family moved when i was 4 because they were being renovated and downstairs bathrooms were being moved upstairs at the loss of a bedroom, so it would no longer accommodate us. Our new house was a 10 minute walk from the old one. I lived there until i bought my own home with my bf before we married and my sister still lives at the family home.
When i married we stayed in out first house for 17 yrs. We have been in this one for 12 years.
Aww, that's a long, intricate history! Good to see you, @RubySoo!

I think about 13 or 14 not including a few barracks type places that I lived in for a few yrs. I'm not American though.

I have lived in around 12 places, but at the current house 18 yeras 6 months
That's a good amount of time! My longest was about 8 years. @nedkelly

20+
Most of that was when I was younger,we was always moving. I've been in my house for 24 years now..I'm all moved out!
Woot! I'd love to find a place to be done traveling for. I'm sure it'll happen some day, but I'll have to know where I want my home base to be, (or forfeit that desire,) and that's difficult... @SW-User

I've only lived in one in 25 years.
Wow! That's a long time. @maybesomeday Do you ever consider moving?

@KayraJordyn I have a partner now, and in the near future I would like my own house. Hoping it's one I can stay in for a lot of my life as well, but I'm not sure how realistic that will be.
We never know exactly what's meant to be, do we? I hope your "home" life and your life with your partner come together in a way that promotes the growth of both your house -and- your home. :) @maybesomeday

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that. Truly.

My mother just lost her parents this autumn, and we also lost my cousin's baby and my father's brother within the same two months. I pray my parents live a long and happy life, as healthfully as possible. They are so important to me and my sisters, and their kiddos. I just cannot imagine how the days will be survived when they are no longer here. I suppose I should rejoice that I find I can absolutely believe that souls continue on, and that we will all be together again one day. The hearts I photograph remind me gently of this. But I still find myself worrying about the days to come, dearly. Anyway... Blessings, @Stereoguy. 🖤
