Poll: Native or Transplant?

[flechero]

My family moved here when I was in grade school (1981) and I have no plans to leave.

[TomS]

The military brought me here and here I remain, no reason to leave.

[Allons]

Moved here as an adult, left for a couple of years and then came back.

Same here

We moved here from Flint, Michigan in 1997. Kids have moved away, but my wife and I love it here.

Given the situation with the drinking water in Flint, you made the right move!

Ahh, it's no worse than shooting daily, in an indoor range with no ventilation!

Born here over 60 years ago. Never lived anywhere else. Guess I've about made up my mind to stay.

Born here - both parents born here - Grand Parents ( both sides ) born here - Great Grandparents ( both sides ) came to The Sovereign Touched By The Very Hand of God Republic in 1871-1875 from Tennessee.

Parents brought me here when I was 3yo!

Mom was born in El Paso and I was born and raised in California when it was still fun. Growing up, Camp Roberts was the stomping ground for hunting everthing from quail and dove to deer...except the Tule Elk, those were left alone. I grew up shooting twenty-two's on Black Mountain as well as at home. 870 shotguns, a model 700 in 30-06, and a 7mm mauser which I used to bag my first deer. Sadly all of that has been regulated away. I haven't lived in California for close to twenty years and the only reason I go back on occasion is to see my dad.

Born and raised in Alabama, moved to Texas as an adult, but after 7 years just moved back to Alabama.

Where in CA did you live? I went to school in the area and spent quite a bit of time visiting Camp Bob myself. Got to love that area. Some of the panoramic views from the hilltops are fantastic.

I selected "Born and Raised in Texas and never left", but that's not exactly 100% true.

I spent just over 22 years in the USAF. I lived lots of places but Texas was always home, in my heart and officially (home of record).

Similar. Born here but save for HS, not really raised here. Spent a big chunk overseas and elsewhere. Moved back when I could and suspect it's for good, pending a better offer.

Born and raised. Wouldn’t have it any other way
