I myself would gladly move, for there being no fiber available in our current district. But on a more serious note, we live in a city with 89,000 people and there's not much interesting going on here. I've been in Berlin with the family and I'd much rather like to live there than here.
Though the lack of fiber-joke is not really a joke because I could really use that since I upload a lot lately.
Nup, hate the place, as far as I'm concerned nuke it, infact just nuke the entireity of Western Australia.
Can't wait to move from Perth to Seattle later this year.
Tough question actually.
Right now I live on the countryside, with a small city not far from me.
On one hand I'd like to move to the capital, because the majority of my close friends live there and the posibillity for further education is greater.
On the other hand. I've lived down south on the countryside my entire life. I love it here and have all of my family down here.
Not that it really matters that much since it's only a 45 minute/1 hour drive for me to get to the capital via the highway.
I think that in the end, I wouldn't mind moving to the capital.
My roots don't run deep and my family (who came from 2 families that the previous generation of changed state, abandoning the rest of the extended families in question) wants me to move cos they know Perth is stifling me so yeah not exactly attached.
My college town is nice but I hate the suburbs where i live. I would prefer to live in NYC or move back to Israel.
Not attached at all. I live where I live out of convenience. I moved to my current neighbourhood on the basis that rents were cheap and the place I'm at now also has a car garage (the last place I lived was close to work, but it was bogan central and there was only a carport, not a garage). I've started a second job that's about 45 minutes from where I live, and I would move closer to that job if/when I quit my first job.
But yeah current neighbourhood ain't exactly the best eg I hear domestics regularly. I like living in country towns (convenience of urban areas, but close to nature), but I have no particular attachment to this one. Never really had an attachment to any place that I lived.
I love the quietness of my area. Dirt road, quiet, no one to bother you. Shitty internet is the only problem.
Would consider moving to the UK or France though, but I'm also really attached to here.
I'm not, I fucking hate the town I live in. It's super ghetto and full of crime. I'd much rather live out in the country, where it's quiet and people won't bother you.
Have never felt any real attachment to some certain place(actually it's been a few years since i moved from my city of birth to Moscow, mostly running away from some bad memories), though I feel like those attachments to certain people you care about tend to be much stronger.
I mean, it sure is normal to have preferences when it comes to choosing a place to live(i personally just can't stand small towns as i feel trapped there, feeling like everything interesting passes me by), though i don't really care if that big city i live in is Moscow or London or New York as long as it has all the stuff i need. People are much more important.
I've never really cared where I live. Currently I hate it. There is atleast 2 or 3 drive-by Per Month (Gangster get in cars and shoot up the place) Sadly I've learned to get use to it. Hopefully I'll be leaving soon.
I'd say I'm pretty well attached to Virginia(born and raised). Unfortunately I live in the northern end, which I consider one of the main butt-holes of the east coast. Everything to rich and vain assholes to shitty drivers, bad traffic, road construction, an ever growing population boom, government employee assholes,big houses,[b][i]RIDICULOUS living costs[/b][/i] and a general circle-jerk of 1-upping each-other in material gain and outside appearance. I'd like to move deeper in(south west, Buchanan cty., Bristol, Scott cty., Etc)VA where my Pa's family is. I'm much more accustomed to [i]classic[/i] Virginia..
In South West VA people are polite and friendly; living costs are amiable and it's where you aren't looked down upon for being a tradesman(I'm a welder/Blacksmith, pretty much taboo in NoVA) as well as being where you get the best kind of Appalachian/southern hospitality. I wouldn't feel comfortable leaving Virginia, because I know it too well and I know someone like me wouldn't fit well outside of Dixie.

I agree, the whole area around this part of the Smokies (Knoxville TN here) is nice in most aspects.
I live in Fredericksburg, Virginia. Honestly... I like it, a lot. I've lived here all of my life, I drive by the hospital I was born in on what is basically a daily basis. Most of my friends are still around, or visit semi-regularly. Parents are still here. All of the family I care about is about an hour away in either direction. It's close to more or less anywhere I have a strong desire to go as far as activities or etc. go. It's a little to close to DC for my liking, but otherwise, it (and the areas around it) are pretty comfy. This is steadily changing, sadly. New housing developments are popping up everywhere, and it's getting crowded as hell. This is one of the things that will probably get me to move, if I ever do.
Now, I haven't really been West, ever. I've been all up and down the east coast, but that is the extent of my travelling. I love some of the states I've been to. Pennsylvania is gorgeous. I have a pal that lives in North Carolina's Outer Banks that I'm very fond of, and try to visit as often as work allows. It's the most touresty place I've ever really visited aside from Universal in Florida, but it's still a great place in the off-season. I'm sure the more west I head, the more stuff there is for me to see, and I'm double sure it's all stuff I could get along fine with. There are certainly problems with where I live, and I have a few friends who have moved off to school and the like who rag on it since where they are is better by some measures, and some of those I agree with.
But, well, like someone said above... Home is home, for me. I'm going to be basically forced to move away from here, since cost of living is outrageously high, and well, I'm 22 and living with my parents. Probably time to get my ass in gear (not a NEET though, working full-time and saving up for... something, I guess.) But, I'm likely going to inherit the house once my parents move away in a decade, give or take. If the area isn't completely permeated with fuckin' yankees (:v:) by then, I could see myself moving back, probably to the same house I grew up in.
Honestly, I have no idea what my plans are. I like the idea of fucking off to somewhere where I can do what I want, and not really have to deal with people unless I go out of my way to (Wyoming, Alaska, Montana, etc. ) But I'm not sure if I'd REALLY like the day to day of that kind of life.
But I feel like I will always have a chunk of nostalgia sitting in my heart for The Old Dominion.
The thought of living somewhere your whole life is bewildering. I don't mean that in a negative way at all it's just difficult for me to comprehend
Fuck where I live. Probably going to split rent with my mom soon to help her get out of her shituation, then gonna pop off to cali in search of jobs and friends. Florida kinda blows dick, so the sooner I get out of this life trap the better
Well, I'm not situated in my home country anymore, and to be honest I do like Britian a lot more then I do Norway, even though I do miss my workplace, the casual places we went to, my friends and family
Not that attached tbh but I do have a strong sense of regional pride for any place that I live in. Not because I legitimately believe we're better than everyone else but because I just think it's fun, just something I picked up in sports I guess.
West coast best coast
SoCal best Cal
USA USA USA
I have mixed feelings about where I live. On one hand, I like the quiet little town of about 5000 people that almost has it's own [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C3%B8rkop_Municipality"]Wikipedia article[/URL]. It's also Denmark, which I politically and economically prefer to other countries. There's also a quite successful scouting group (which I am a leader in) and a train station. A few grocery stores (and 4 pizza places). It would pretty much be ideal.
Though on the other hand, it's a place with not very many places to walk. I like places with lots of nature, and while we do have that around here, it's almost nothing in terms of how much ground I can cover. The scouting organisation that I mentioned isn't as successful with people at my own age, which sucks hard. In terms of interests, most people are incredibly mainstream. The closest you get to people that aren't, are the 12 - 15 year olds that have discovered the internet. And even then they are incredibly mainstream.
Same with Denmark as a whole. I like it because the living standard is pretty great. We're pretty much [URL="http://www.transparency.org/news/feature/corruption_perceptions_index_2016#table"]the least corrupt[/URL] country. Free healthcare and education too. But I'm not a big fan of the language and entertainment. (With the exception of Tobias Dybvad, and pretty much all older movies (like Olsen Banden, Huset På Christianshavn, etc.)
I think I'd rather live in the UK, or at least somewhere with better places to walk, if it wasn't because this country was so great
Trust me when I say that this place is better as a wasteland than as a city.
So no, not attached to it if not historically.
I like where I live but I'm looking forward to getting more money so I can get my own place to stay. Renting with others isn't that bad though, especially when you have an ensuite.
I wish I lived closer to my friend so I'm not liking where I live at the moment. She's like a half hour away
If roundabouts and retail parks are your thing come to Telford in Shropshire.
Personally I don't like the place all that much but find it to be ok because I mostly entertain myself indoors when I'm not at work. YMMV...
Third generation born and raised in Fredericksburg, VA and could not have more opposite feelings about that shithole. Currently living on campus at GMU and I feel worlds away. I literally have no connection to family, I haven't spoken to anyone on my dad's side of the family for 6 years now and the 2 mandatory holiday meetings with my mom's side hold me over for the year. I was nearly entirely raised by my neighbor/babysitter since my parents worked full time for most of my childhood. I like my parents but I can go months without seeing them and it doesn't bother me.
It takes goddamn 30 minutes to get anywhere in Fredericksburg from my childhood home, everyone drives 5 under the speed limit in a lifted truck with Gadsden plates and a CSA flag sticker that's never seen a speck of dirt in its life. The only things to do are go to a bar and drink. The particular area I grew up is nothing but rednecks on meth. Fuck that place.
Once I graduate and get a little cash together, I'll most certainly be going West. Minneapolis and Seattle are the two places I'd most certainly love to call home, I'll actually be taking a trip to Minneapolis this summer with my girlfriend to visit her grandparents. I haven't ruled out Vancouver but I think I'd prefer to stay stateside.
I'm pretty content where I live. A nice, quiet and cozy little town with everything I need. I've lived in the country side my entire life so I'm a bit curious to see what its like to live in the city
Absolutely not content with living here. I love the town, but there isn't shit to do here or places to work besides factories, the hospital, and fast food. It's impossible to start a career in tech here, so it's imperative that I get out as soon as possible.
I'll definitely come back every now and then because I love the town, though. I just don't love living in it at the moment.
Hate this community I live in, everyone with remote success have moved away. Including I will get away from this shithole
Not really, and at the same spot, very. I don't hold any love for Tennessee, I'm allergic to the plantlife, the humidity is bollocks, too many hills, yaddayadda. But at the same time I've already been at this address since 1996. I'll likely inherit a house that, at that point, I'll be able to pay off in a couple of years, if it isn't already paid off by then. And that means I won't have the two major debt generators people usually have(Mortgage, car payment). So in that respect I don't plan on going anywhere.
For the most part yes I like where I live, which is my hometown. I do not have to go that far for everyday errands, convenience store easily within walking distance, and the environment is lovely. Plenty of places to go to especially in downtown. Although it costs me 1200 yen in public transportation just to go downtown and back (probably half that or even less for about the same distance in Tokyo), that I find ridiculous so I do not go downtown on my own unless I have lots of things to do at once. I cannot comment very much on jobs because I am still a high school student but the overall cost of living down here is much cheaper than anywhere like the middle of Tokyo. Might have to move somewhere completely different in Japan for college though.
And of course, Japan as a whole I love living in, infrastructure is well-kept, everything is clean and consistent. I went on a long-term trip once to the States, did not like.
I'm not attached to where I live very much, I have some bad memories I'd like to leave behind.
Been looking in to moving to a larger town, Stockholm/Göteborg/Uppsala in the near future. Really depends if I want to go to university or not.
I don't really want to leave Sweden though. Even with some of the issues(which a lot of American media are overexaggerating) it seems as though Sweden is still one of the most stable and best countries to live in. Not to mention free university if I decide to go and free healthcare.
