Can walk to my high school... I live about 5 miles from the house I grew up in. my parent's still live there. I'm about 10 miles from my Dads parents farm, that my cousin now owns, and about 5 miles from my moms parents house, that here sister now owns. Great grandparents all lived within 20 miles of here as well, as did some of the great-great grandparents.
We're next door to my wife's parents house, that was her grandparents house and has been in the family since it was built in the 1800s.
I guess you'd say our roots are a bit deep
currently is a bit of a hindrance as it really limits my options for a new job. Our area is a bit depressed, but I don't wanna move just for a job.
