All three houses I have lived in are within 10 miles, the one I'm in now I have been in for about 6 years or so. I previously lived here from the age of a few days to 5. It's a double block that was my Grandmothers, nobody has lived on either side since the late 40's that wasn't related. The side I'm on hasn't been occupied since the late 90's.
