Some places yea, Others no.

I’m on my 23rd adress now (spread over 6 towns/cities). I have memories attached to each of the places, both good and bad I remember most of the addresses. I’ve had a pretty chaotic life but am mostly done with that now. I might move again in a few years but for now I’m settled.

we had to sell my childhood house because it was going to be foreclosed otherwise. Barely even a week after my dad’s death. I’ve broken down every time I’ve tried to look at the place again, in person or through street view. I just want my home back.

I have moved 14 times in 36 years, not including digs as a touring artist or artist-in-residence, or times where I practically lived at an ex’s house.

My first 4 years were spent in a house I barely remenber. I have flashes of: biting a sofa as a toddler and it feeling weird, a family party where everyone was enjoying how much I loved bananas, and watching a rainstorm out of the big window.

Then ages 5-19 i lived in a small village surrounded by farms, rural footpaths with styes and gates - so I have a lot of memories of all sorts of life: from kids playing to being teens with nothing better to do, with sneaking away with partners to fool around in the long grass, to taking walks just to fun…

Over time the village got bigger, this field filled with giant dead logs we used to play on is now houses, some fields we walked across are now fenced in, and my parents retired and moved, so they sold the house and they completely remodeled it: changed the entrance, moved the bathrooms and the kitchen. So yes I feel nostalgic for that, but also change is inevitable so there are experiences lost to time like tears in the rain.

Then after that I’ve lived in big cities, which as I got older and more financially stable, meant i moved further in to the centers with more stuff to do and more trouble to get up to.

And then coming up on 2 years I bought this house where we plan to stay for a good long while.

I remember every single place I’ve lived in (over a dozen) and remember the address of most of them; the ones I don’t I can look up quite easily

I do feel quite sentimental about two specific places (ironically the two “worst” places I’ve lived in), not much with most others; one I almost hate with a passion

On average I have moved once a year the past 11 years. I remember all of them, but am only nostalgic for my childhood home.

We just sold a house after living in it for 25 years. It’s where we raised our kids. Before selling i was struggling a bit. The moving out process is exhausting and makes you just want to be done. We inherited a house that needs significant work. The remodeling of that is exciting and the proceeds from our house sale make it possible, so I’m not sad about it at all. My husband likes to drive by to criticize the new owners landscaping.

I tried counting, and I think I’ve lived in 20+ places. Only 4 during college, so I’ve just always moved frequently.

I remember everywhere other than the place where I was a baby, which I remember in bits and pieces, but didn’t recognize from streetview. There’s only that house and the one after it when I was like ages 2-4 that I would want to go back to out of curiosity. The houses felt so huge, and I’m sure they were tiny. Seeing them in streetview is more like teasing a mystery than bringing up memories.

Other than that, I only look at places out of curiosity of how they’ve changed. Places don’t really hold a ton of significance once they become functionally unattached to the emotional arc of one’s life.

After my stepdad died, I helped the hazmat crew clean out the house I grew up in, due to his extreme hoarding. Once the house was empty, I took a look around, just to see if I felt anything. All I felt was the loss of my family history, to the rats.

I do remember. I don’t miss it. Always moved to a place that suited me better, often after a year or so of my circumstances changing so I’ve got time to get annoyed with my living conditions where I moved from

Yes, but my memory is not the best for anything not word-based. And I guess I feel a certain amount of nostalgia? I’m glad I was there when I was, and I’m also glad to be where I am today. Finally, I’m a sentimental guy in general but I don’t think I feel that intensely about places. 👍

Yes, very sentimental about the memories created in those places.

Yep. 50+ yo, every once in a while I wind up driving past a place I lived and reminiscing. My mom was a navy brat and moved around a LOT, we still every once in a while go drive by some place or other that she used to live growing up.

I still can’t believe they built a housing development all over my crayfish creek 😡

I remember some places more than others, and I might have forgotten one or two. I moved around a lot from ages 18 to 32.

Sentimental? Only a bit about the house I grew up in. But, my parents owned it until their deaths, so I was there somewhat regularly. We sold it a few years back when dad died. I’ve lived in my own house for nearly 30 years now, I’m not at all sentimental about it. It’s just a roof over my head for me and my son.

I suppose I’m more sentimental about my childhood, than the house I grew up in, come to think of it.

Thankfully the only such place is my parents, and I can visit that.
Idk how I’ll deal when they eventually have to sell it. They built it themselves a few years before I was born.

I’ve currently lived in the same apartment for about 10 years, but I worry that when we eventually move, my child will miss it and won’t really have a way to visit it again.
