Where did you grow up?

I grew up in County Durham, in the North East of England.

There's.. not much here, really. We have a cricket team and a cathedral and.. not a lot else. There are worse places to have grown up, I guess.
 
I grew up in the small town of Eustis, Florida. Or that one town that gets overshadowed by Orlando xD. It's meh.
 
THE KANTO REGION LOL

Just kidding, born and raised in Virginia. Good place where I live, better than the Chicago's out there.

Since you grew up or "live" in Virginia, are you near Virginia Beach or ever been there? I heard it's a really nice beach.

Anyways I grew up in Missouri. Definitely better than Illinois (where I live now). People are so nice there where people here are just ignorant. Guess that's Chicago for you.
 
I grew up in Birmingham, England [Boldmere]. I spent 13 years there, then moved to London, then back to Birmingham.
 
I grew up in Cornwall, England, and consider myself quite fortunate as I think it's one of the most beautiful places in the country. Lots of events, lots of places to visit. I'd definitely like to live there again someday.

Confirmed: Vendak is King Arthur
 
I've lived in Chester County, Pennsylvania my whole life, I do wonder what it would've been like had I been somewhere else. My parents lived in a house in Wayne but moved here in between when my sister was born and when my brother and I were. So yeah, nothing for me has really changed on this matter.
 
Lots of places. My mom was in the Air Force, so we moved whenever the Air Force stationed her somewhere else. The simplest answer I could say is "the Midwest", because that's the only region I've lived in the US. I lived in a few foreign countries, but we didn't get out much, so it didn't really shape me.

If someone asked me where I'm from, I'd likely tell them the city I live now out of simplicity. I lived here a year and a half or whatever during my teenage years, and then moved back here 5 years ago. At this point it wins by default, haha.
 
I was born in Mexico but I grew up in San Bernardino, CA. The Inland Empire. The I.E. yo. The only place in SoCal that's not too hot nor too cold.
 
I grew up in Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada until I moved away for school at 18. Probably not going to move back any time soon.
 
West Philadelphia, born and raised
On the playground is where I spent most o' my days


I don't have a hometown - I was raised here, there, and everywhere. I have a taste of a lot of places and lifestyles.
 
I was born in Guyana, South America and moved to the United States at age 5. MY family on my mother's side still live in South America and I get to see them every few years. Now that I'm growing older though, and have more freedom I'm trying to see them at least once a year. From the age of five, I lived in the western part of Kentucky for a few years and had many friends; later on my family and I would move to northern Kentucky and I would finish high school. Now I live in Arkansas going to college. I've made many friends along the way and still try to keep up with most of them.
