How many (and which) states have you lived in for at least 6 months?

[allniter89]

Continuing the "how many" theme 
How many (and which) states have you lived in for 6 continuous months?
Nine and a half for me, AK, DE, FL, IL, MA, MI, NC, NV, SC and the US terrritory of Guam. And only took 28 yrs to do it

[corco]

Ohio (July 1988-April 1989 - but returned multiple times per year for up to a month from 1989-2006), Illinois (May 1989-June 1997) , Idaho (July 1997-August 2006), Washington (August 2006-December 2008), Wyoming (January 2009-December 2010), Arizona (January 2011-present)

[stormwatch7721]

Ohio, West Virginia and South Carolina.

[oscar]

NC (born there, and returned as a child), MN, VA (briefly as a child, thirty years as an adult), CA, CT.

I spent summers in CA after I moved away, and DC.

[Chicagosuburban]

Illinois. My whole life.

[texaskdog]

Minnesota (37 years), then Wyoming (2 months) back to Minnesota for a month, and then Texas the last 5 years.  No interest in living anywhere else unless I retired with more than one home.

[elsmere241]

New York, Wisconsin, Tennessee, Delaware, Utah (interrupted by almost two years in Italy), Delaware, North Carolina, Delaware, counting six-month or greater stays.

[1995hoo]

Three: Texas (born there), Virginia (lived here for the majority of my life, including now), and North Carolina (I attended Duke Law School for three years).

I spent three months in Alabama one summer for a job, and I spent one month in New Jersey one summer handling a patent infringement trial in Trenton, but those don't satisfy the "six continuous months" stipulation.

[hobsini2]

Wisconsin from 0 to 4, Illinois from 4 to now, and college in Minnesota for 2 years.

[yanksfan6129]

New Jersey. But that is about to change, assuming you include college (will be moving to NY for college in August).

[Scott5114]

OK mostly, and a bit of MO for college.

[Duke87]

Two:

- New York (1987-1990, and part time 2005-2009 for college)
- Connecticut (otherwise)

[huskeroadgeek]

California(birth to 2 years), Arkansas(college) and Nebraska(everything else).

[SSOWorld]

Wisconsin (0 to now)

[Bryant5493]

Georgia for 312 months.


Be well,

[BigMattFromTexas]

I've been a resident of Texas for 5,700 days, or 15 years, 7 months, and 9 days, or 136,800 hours, or  8,208,000 minutes, OR 492,480,000 seconds!
But I stayed in Iowa for 3 months. With my family.

In order, longest to shortest: Illinois (Will County), Michigan (Houghton County, Ingham County), Louisiana (East Baton Rouge Parish), Wyoming (Sweetwater County).

[Eth]

Two states - Georgia (first 22 years, as well as the last 1 1/2 months); Maryland (2 1/2 years total, though the longest continuous stretch was just 2 years).

[agentsteel53]

the great Communist State of Hungary - May 1981 to June 1986.

Massachusetts - June 1986 to May 2004 (and this is why I consider Boston my home!  )

California - May 2004 to March 2006, Oct 2006 to Aug 2009, Apr 2010 to present (just when I thought I was out, they keep pulling me back in!)

New Mexico - August 2009 to April 2010

and honorable mention: Florida.  not 6 months, but I did get a driver's license in that state, so it must count for something.  March 2006 to August 2006.

you might wonder where I lived between August and October, 2006.  the answer is: I didn't.  I had a Florida mailing address for tax purposes, but I was a nomad.  Drove 53000 miles in that interval; 7 cross-country trips (3 1/2 full loops, explaining how I began in Florida and ended in San Diego), always taking the scenic route. 

[Brandon]

California - May 2004 to March 2006, Oct 2006 to Aug 2009, Apr 2010 to present (just when I thought I was out, they keep pulling me back in!)
