It's interesting, I didn't move around until after I left home at 18. I moved back and forth from Huntsville to Tuscaloosa 4 times, then to Birmingham and back to Huntsville, then to Costa Rica, back to Huntsville, then to Jacksonville, FL then to Germany, back to Huntsville and now Jacksonville again haha.

My total will be 24 when I move at the end of January. That will probably be the last one for awhile.

Approximately 16 times. I say "approximately" because there might be a few times that I was too young to remember.

From the time I can remember? Twenty-two. I am counting the four years of back and forth to college as one long, protracted move. (I am currently 48). Most of these were as an adult.

The majority of mine were between the ages of 4-years old and 16-years old, we moved at least once a year, sometimes twice and once three times. Often we moved from one residence to another in the same town or community. The place where I currently live has been the longest time I have ever lived in one place in my life, 8 years.

About 8, out of that 8 I moved to two different places, so I've lived in three towns/cities.

I have moved 9 times. I went to 5 different schools by the time I was 10. My dad was a prison guard and was moved all over the Midwest and to Nevada to be a guard at new prisons. I hated it. I was only ever in the same town for about 18 months before we moved again.
