    • I grew up in County Durham, in the North East of England.

    There's.. not much here, really. We have a cricket team and a cathedral and.. not a lot else. There are worse places to have grown up, I guess.

    Just kidding, born and raised in Virginia. Good place where I live, better than the Chicago's out there.

    Since you grew up or "live" in Virginia, are you near Virginia Beach or ever been there? I heard it's a really nice beach.

    Anyways I grew up in Missouri. Definitely better than Illinois (where I live now). People are so nice there where people here are just ignorant. Guess that's Chicago for you.

    I grew up in Cornwall, England, and consider myself quite fortunate as I think it's one of the most beautiful places in the country. Lots of events, lots of places to visit. I'd definitely like to live there again someday.

    • I've lived in Chester County, Pennsylvania my whole life, I do wonder what it would've been like had I been somewhere else. My parents lived in a house in Wayne but moved here in between when my sister was born and when my brother and I were. So yeah, nothing for me has really changed on this matter.

    • Lots of places. My mom was in the Air Force, so we moved whenever the Air Force stationed her somewhere else. The simplest answer I could say is "the Midwest", because that's the only region I've lived in the US. I lived in a few foreign countries, but we didn't get out much, so it didn't really shape me.

    If someone asked me where I'm from, I'd likely tell them the city I live now out of simplicity. I lived here a year and a half or whatever during my teenage years, and then moved back here 5 years ago. At this point it wins by default, haha.

    • I was born in Mexico but I grew up in San Bernardino, CA. The Inland Empire. The I.E. yo. The only place in SoCal that's not too hot nor too cold.

    • West Philadelphia, born and raised
    On the playground is where I spent most o' my days

    I don't have a hometown - I was raised here, there, and everywhere. I have a taste of a lot of places and lifestyles.

    I was born in Guyana, South America and moved to the United States at age 5. MY family on my mother's side still live in South America and I get to see them every few years. Now that I'm growing older though, and have more freedom I'm trying to see them at least once a year. From the age of five, I lived in the western part of Kentucky for a few years and had many friends; later on my family and I would move to northern Kentucky and I would finish high school. Now I live in Arkansas going to college. I've made many friends along the way and still try to keep up with most of them.
