How many apartments/houses have you lived in post 17

I guess we can count college/university dorm rooms.
I've lived in eight, I moved in to my eighth yesterday.

One college dorm in Moncton New Brunswick
One Campus apartment in Trois Rivereis Quebec
Two Apartments in Woodstock New Brunswick (One shitty, one awsome)
One on Gabriola Island (Basement suite)
One in Crowsnest Pass Alberta (Disgusting mice infested top floor of a house)
One just renting a room in the town I live in now.
The one I just moved into this weekend. Bottom floor building..buy the river. :-)

You?

look like it is a very pale elmo?

Adulthood-
1995-now: the same house
1993-95: 2 bedroom apt
1991-93: 1 bedroom apt
early 1991: really bad 1 bedroom apt
Summer 1990-Jan '91: in a house with roommates

Back when I lived with my parents (18 and under):
I lived in 10 different places.

I'm only 19 now.

1986-2002: My parents house in West Palm Beach
2002-2003: Academic Village dormatory at UCF
2003-Present: College Station apartments

College Station is a roach motel if you've ever seen one btw.

I resemble that remark.

I graduated from A&M and while College Station isn't the most happenin' place on the planet, I had five years of VERY good times there. Very good indeed.

Relax and enjoy yourself. Don't let the conservative thugs get to ya. This is your liberal training ground, my man. I credit A&M with bringing out my Inner Liberal. I was in Aggies Against Bonfire and when we demonstrated, our signs were ripped from our hands and we were beaten with the wooden sticks and spit upon and kicked. And I was just a little 110 pound 18 year old girl.

It ain't so bad.

mine is located in Orlando, Florida. I don't know of any A&M schools near here.

It would be an amazing coincidence if we are talking about the same place though. :)

Wow ... I never thought of it as being 15.

Of course, I was 18 years old almost 28 years ago.

That's moving to a new place once every two years almost.

There were a couple of places where I lived for less than 3 months.

My current place? Ten months on Wednesday.

--bkl

and the age of 17 was 16 years ago.

I was thinking about this just tonight--how unstable my life has been, especially compared to other men my age (41).

For me it's something like 15 or 16 places of residence. I need some effing stability, dammit!

I lived at home through undergrad at U of C

Back in Calgary, better part of a year in my mom's basement while she went through chemo (she's still going strong 20 yrs later)
House in Altadore, 5 years
House in Lakeview, 12 years
Built current house in Bridlewood, been here almost three years

I might have know :eyes:

just kiddin :-)

I'll have you know I'm a real live musicologist, and I have the piece of paper packed away God knows where to prove it!

Thhis was in the late '70's, before the U of C became an overcrowded slum.

SFU was much nicer 25 years ago I hear

We took the tour last fall, and were hooked. Fabulous looking school, not overcrowded, good programs. He's really eager to go.

Good town, my photo album still resides there at my friend's house.

We have waywayway too much crap, incidentally. :D

And I don't need any stuff. Being the son of the only childbearing offspring of a daughter of an old Swedish carpenter means I have old wooden furniture coming out the wazoo.

We're most attached to it, actually. :D

As much as I complain about Axel's furniture, I could never part from it. I wouldn't even dare not use a coaster, let alone get rid of it. There is a certain amount of respect I feel is due to the work of ancestors that was done over a century ago.

not to bad for a 40-year old.

And I hope that's the *last* move.

And I live in the same town I was born in. Most of my life actually.

and I think I forgot a couple. I know I've forgotten the street names of a number of them.

I lived in Austin for 8 weeks and that was the shortest time I ever lived in any one place. Funny thing is, I was transferred to Austin and then transferred by the same company to Dallas 8 weeks later. The company paid for both moves and bought me out of the lease in Austin.

The longest I ever lived in one place was in a house in Dallas where I lived for 3 years.

I hate moving.

24 different residences since 1975.

The longest period of time was a house in Texas we lived in for 5 years.

The shortest was the dorm-type barracks room that I lived in when stationed at North Island for the last two months of my Navy stint.

The list is too long. Probably 45 locations and 30 legal adresses where I could receive mail.

My folks' house, three dorm rooms, and three apartments.

I hate moving.

Then rented a house. Then bought a house. That's it.

because I had no roots. A few years ago I bought a house, so I expect to stay put until retirement (in 25 or 30 years). It's a lot of work to move so much.

Then 3 different apartments here in Austin - came here for grad school and got stuck here. :)
