Indianapolis and Muncie: SR 67
Indianapolis and Bloomington: SR 37

And in the future, all three by I-69.

US 31 - South Bend and Indianapolis
Indianapolis and Muncie: SR 67 and I-69 (maybe a bit a a stretch, since it's about 7 miles from Muncie at the closest)

Wells, ME and Old Orchard Beach, ME are both serviced by ME Route 9.

I live in New Britain, CT, which has CT Route 9, but does not connect to ME's road.

Raleigh, Wake Forest, and Franklinton, NC--US 1
Starkville, MS and Columbus, MS--US 82

Counting close family who I would visit for holidays and stuff as well as just myself:

Peabody, Mass and Newark Del: I-95
Lafayette, Ind and Albemarle, NC: US 52
Greenville NC and Newark Del is close to hitting with US 13, but 13 misses Newark by just a little.  Bummer...

apjung

Lafayette, Louisiana and Greater New Orleans: I-10, I-49/future I-49, US 90, LA 182 (okay, it ends just outside of Raceland but it's close enough)

Technically, Lafayette and Metairie is only connected by I-10 since US 90 does not go through Metairie.

Roadsguy

My closest example, of all the three cities/towns I've lived in, is Lebanon and Philadelphia, almost connected by the PA Turnpike. (You need to go up PA 72 to get to Lebanon, and the Turnpike goes around the north side of the Philly area, not quite entering it.
Mileage-based exit numbering implies the existence of mileage-cringe exit numbering.

Nashville, TN and Raleigh, NC: I-40

Double almost: US 1 goes through Raleigh and comes close to Newark, DE; I-95 brushes Newark and comes relatively close to Raleigh.

US71

Fayetteville and Fort Smith, AR. I'm not sure, but I think it was part of the Jefferson Highway at one time ;)  :bigass:

Quite a few now that I think of it...

San Francisco, CA and Williamsport (and State College), PA – I-80
(Yes, I know that I-80 doesn't enter either Williamsport or State College, but it does serve those communities, and at least Williamsport has an x80 spur and is used sporadically as a control city.)

Williamsport and State College, PA – US 220

Williamsport and Harrisburg, PA – US 15 (for all intents and purposes)

Harrisburg and Allentown, PA – US 22 (I-78, almost)

State College, Harrisburg, and West Chester, PA – US 322

West Chester and Allentown, PA – PA 100 (for all intents and purposes)

Allentown and Philadelphia, PA – PA 309, I-476 (for all intents and purposes)

Harrisburg and Philadelphia, PA – I-76

Strider

Greensboro, NC; Morganton, NC; Gibsonville, NC; Archdale, NC; Lewisville, NC: I-40/I-85, US 421

(Morganton and Greensboro is connected by I-40; Archdale and Greensboro is connected by I-85, and Gibsonville is connected to Greensboro via I-40/I-85 multiplex, and Lewisville, NC is connected to Greensboro via US 421. thus why I put all 5 different cities as all being connected via I-40 and I-85 and US 421)

Manassas, VA, Greensboro, NC: US 29
US 29 does run to the west of actual town... it meets the state route 234 at the Manassas Battlefield Park just north of I-66 interchange, which is a part of Manassas.

US 14 has dominated the last decade of my life. Chicago and two suburbs. Toss in one more if you count work.

US 1 dominated my early to mid 20s. Saco, Portland and all stops between.

US 20 has been an odd theme in my life too. I've lived and worked near it for much of my life. Particularly college (Rockford, IL). We'd occasionally joke about driving the whole length of US 20. I'm about 20% there.

DandyDan

The only case where that's happened to me is IL 38, which connects St. Charles (where I went to high school) and DeKalb, where I went to college.  My parents get an honorable mention, as they live here in Papillion, NE, which goes within 5 miles of US 75, which goes through their old hometown of Luverne, MN (dad actually lived on US 75 for a time there, before he met mom).

None of the places I've lived are connected by the same highway.

I've lived in 4 places in Maryland (Baltimore City - Charles Village; Edgewood; Jarrettsville; Perry Hall) and 1 in Virginia (Lynchburg).

Three out of the four Maryland locations are on the north east side of the Baltimore metro area (Charles Village is smack in the middle of the city) but they aren't served by any of the same routes. Amusingly, if you ignore the names and route numbers on the highways, you'd get pretty close with the same stretch of road between Jarrettsville and Charles Village (MD 146 and MD 45). There are no turns required to transition from MD 146 to MD 45 (a roundabout connects them at 146's southern terminus).

Thanks to this thread, I realized that in 4 of the 5 different locations that I've lived.....Interstate 90 was less than 7 miles away.

Sandusky, OH and Norwalk, OH --- US 250

Norwalk, OH and Belvidere & Rockford, IL --- US 20* & I-90
      *I've used US 20 to get to work in all three locations for almost 10 years.  Crazy.

The High Plains Traveler

I-25 for Las Cruces and Albuquerque NM, and Pueblo CO. Actually I don't live in Pueblo but close enough. I also moved from metro L.A. to Las Cruces via I-10. There isn't a continuous route connecting my current location to Twin Cities MN, where I lived 25 years though.

Portland OR, Vancouver WA, Carlsbad CA, Orange CA,: I-5, I-205 (OR/WA)
Beaverton OR, Hillsboro OR, Portland OR: US-26, OR-8
Orange CA, Costa Mesa CA: CA-55
Costa Mesa CA, Long Beach CA: I-405

Not quite what the OP is asking about, but I've lived at 3 different addresses in the same town, and all were within 2 city blocks of Harrison Avenue.

One place was a motel, for 15 months.  And yes, it was not a fun time at all.  Motels are noisy, this one was old and run down, and the clientele was scary, although some of the others might have felt the same way about me.   :wow:

San Diego CA and Idaho Falls ID - I-15
New London CT, Dumfries VA, and Fredericksburg VA - US 1

I've moved from Winston-Salem, NC to Boone, NC, which is just a straight shot on U.S. 421.

Before that I moved from Cleveland, OH to Winston-Salem. The trip is all on I-77 until "I-74" splits off about an hour north of Winston.

I've lived in multiple places on both coasts, but the only pair that fits the thread is Seattle and Bellingham connected by I-5.
