Continuing the "how many" theme :hmmm:
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 :)
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)
Ohio, West Virginia and South Carolina.
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.
Illinois. My whole life.
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.
New York, Wisconsin, Tennessee, Delaware, Utah (interrupted by almost two years in Italy), Delaware, North Carolina, Delaware, counting six-month or greater stays.
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.
Wisconsin from 0 to 4, Illinois from 4 to now, and college in Minnesota for 2 years.
New Jersey. But that is about to change, assuming you include college (will be moving to NY for college in August).
OK mostly, and a bit of MO for college.
Two:
- New York (1987-1990, and part time 2005-2009 for college)
- Connecticut (otherwise)
California(birth to 2 years), Arkansas(college) and Nebraska(everything else).
Wisconsin (0 to now)
Georgia for 312 months.
Be well,

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).
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).
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! :sombrero: )
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.
