Where Are You Located?

[Ben Trismegistus]

It's likely that this sort of thing has come up before, but I couldn't find anything by doing a search. And I'm bored, so I figured I'd set up a poll. This was inspired by the "is this an american forum" thread -- Mol was kind enough to post our global distribution, but I'm curious for a more specific breakdown. Thanks for humoring me.

[Old Witch]

I'm in South Carolina.......and Georgia.....sorta........:hrmm:

[amberlaine]

rock on, Texas gets it own radio button.

*livin' on the hog in austin, texas*

i wasn't born a texan, but i'll die one! or, something.

[Amethyst Rose]

Oh come on.... you didn't put Canada on the list? Pshaw! Hehe, just kidding :D

[amberlaine]

*snort* poor Canada.

[materra]

Arizona...
*chuckles* Ben I can tell you are from the East...you included CA in the Southwest vote. Not true, not true. They are on the west coast. All by them selves. Honest. :hehehehe:

[Lunacie]

Hello from the Flatlands of south-central Kansas.

[MammaStar]

Dang it! No choice for "sitting at my desk staring out the window either!"

So I had to pick the East coast. ;)

[AMoonNStar]

Texas vote #2...San Antonio here. :bouncysmi Originally from Chicago, but relocated 4 years ago. Thanks for the poll, I think it'll be interesting to see where we're all from. :clapping:

[Athena-Nadine]

It's already noted in my location--I'm in CO. :)

[anise]

Ya, I guess I'm "other" because there's no Canada :(.

;)

[Ben Trismegistus]

Man I KNEW I'd forget something!

Apologies to those MWers in our 51st state! Er, I mean, in Canada.

Mods, would you kindly add Canada to the poll?

[Phoenix Blue]

I've added Canada and Mexico / Central America to the poll. :)

[Ben Trismegistus]

Thanks Blue! You're a scholar and a gentleman!

Any way you can transfer the answers of our two errant Canadians into their rightful spot?

[Darkstaff]

I'm in coal crackin country, aka, northeastern PA. Not really by choice. I used to be a truck driver, and before that, Navy, so traveling was a huge part of my life. But I settled down for now in the grand mountains of Pennsylvania, and until the wanderlust sucks me back into that which can only be described as "That which I was born into" (i.e. Traveling for a living), this is where I'll stay. Besides, cost of living isn't so bad, and I'm sure I'll meet some cool people up here sooner or later! (Been here three years and I'm still waiting!)
Edrick. BB to you and PLH to you.

[~ Monk ~]

I'm in the Chicago area - literally 20 minutes away from Lake Michigan and 10 minutes away from the Blackhawks' stadium (now if only I could afford tickets!). I'm been here all my life and it'll probably stay that way - the only other state I'd seriously consider moving to is Colorado.

Well...OK, Hawaii too. :D

[Phoenix Blue]

Ehh, it happens. ;)

For the record, I'm originally from Florida. The state can actually be divided into three parts: the Panhandle, which is Deep South; the northern half of the Peninsula, which is the eleventh Canadian province; and the southern half of the Peninsula, which is to Cuba what Taiwan is to mainland China.

[Bainidhe Dub]

I'm currently residing in Illinois, outside of Chicago-Originally from Western NY though.

You forget the area around Fort Lauderdale and Pompano Beach, which can either be called New York South or The Place Where Old Jews Go To Die.

(By the way, tell Wanderer to read my latest response in the "Real Name" thread - she and my sister have the exact same name!)

[AstraSkye]

First European so far... Swede :)

[Cairdeas]

I'm currently in Ohio--I ran here after a bad divorce three years ago.

Emotionally, mentally, and spiritually I've never left the Pacific Northwest (PNW). And I must say, there is a HUGE difference between the attiutes in the PNW and here in the "transitlands." (I call it that because some maps have us as midwest, some as northeast--and we're right there on the border with Canada (well, if you cross Lake Erie first!


I'm not the only one who has noticed the difference in attitudes either--many of my clients have moved here from out of state.


The best thing about Ohio for me, besides leaving it, is that I've met my boyfriend here. :heartthro

[WandererInGray]

*laughs helplessly and pounces on Phoenix....CENSORED....* ;)

:bigredgri Yup...he's a boy.

*laughs* So Colorado is a plain state I guess.

*runs off to look at Ben's response in the Real thread*

[Phoenix Blue]

**Laughs** Goodness. . !

Anyway, technically, Colorado is a Southwest state. :) That description also fits other states whose territory the US annexed from Mexico back in 1848 or so.

[materra]

Yeah, but Ben is an easterner so it's okay. There's lots I don't know either.... but typically the southwest is AZ, NM, CO and Utah because of the Four Corners, and NV and CA by interest location and courtesy. CA likes to think of themselves on their own tho....

Edited to add: I lived in Los Angeles for almost 11 years, does that make me a Californian too???

I live about 30 mins from Downtown Los Angeles.


It's really strange because the greater los angeles area is such a huge monster.

It's a nice, clean, save place, about 12 mins from Zuma beach and malibu ;)

[Haruka2077]

I just moved back to Western New York after living in California for 4 years. When I was there I had to be really specific about where I was from because if you just say "New York", everyone assumes you're from New York City. Even when I said I was from Buffalo, I got comments like "Wow, you don't sound like you're from New York!" or "So, like, is that near Brooklyn?" LOL
Interestingly enough, when I tell people here I was in California, they assume San Diego or L.A. *shrug*

On pagan boards, I assume most everyone is a girl (because most rl pagans I hang with are girls) On Everquest, I assume everyone is a guy. Even when they post pictures of themselves semi nude in a negligee. Always assume they are a guy unless you get a first hand look at the goods in real life. :)

Can I get another Tim Tam please?

[Xentor]

My country is called "The Netherlands".

Which is stupid because we ourselves use the word "Nederland" which would translate into "Netherland". The Netherlands formed a republic that existed over two centuries ago, consisted of 7 counties that still do exist (as a part of Nederland) out of which 1 in particular is known as "Holland". Now the better part of the world think my country's called "Holland". Ah, well.

My language is called "Dutch".

Which is really stupid because we ourselves use the word "Nederlands" which would translate into "Netherlandish", "Netherlandic" or something like that.

My people are called "The Dutch", and one person could be called a "Dutchmen".

No how stupid is that? We ourselves use the term "Nederlander" for a single Dutch person. Wouldn't "Netherlander" be a better translation? But wait, that looks too much like "Neanderthaler"...

Just call me Xentor.

[Cairdeas]

My ex-husband's family lives in a small town here in the U.S. that is predominately peopled with Dutch-immigrants--the few people I've met that are from the Netherlands have been incredibly polite and nice--but the second generation "Dutch" in this little town are very bigoted. Most have bumperstickers that read: "If you're not Dutch, you're not much."

I wonder what it is that destroys cultural heritage. In my home state of Washington there is a little town called Leavenworth, it began as a small town peopled with Bavarian immigrants. Now, alas, it is a tourist trap with Bavarian style facades on the buildings and hosting big overcrowded, and overly expensive festivals like "Oktoberfest." I find it kind of sad.

Sorry, I often ramble. :bigredblu

I voted for Southeast (including Florida), but now I guess I have to change it to NY South! :D Speaking of which, I relocated to northern VA for a few months, and was having dinner at a friends house who had another friend visiting from NY. Halfway thru I told her that her accent was making me homesick. She said, "Oh, you're from NY?" I said, "No, Ft. Lauderdale".

OH, btw, I'm not Jewish, I didn't come here to die, and for the sake of argument, I am not old... I'm "ancient". If you don't believe me, just check out the thread on "Clicking Over". :hehehe:

I live in the San Francisco Bay Area (never lived in The City, tho. Too expensive!) California born and raised. And I had a tough time voting "Southwest", because the Bay Area is nothing like the Southwest. VB was right about voting "other".

Mark Twain said "The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco," but it's not a joke. The ocean in northern California is cold enough that surfers wear wetsuits. Think fog and redwoods, not hot sun and palm trees.

So true!! We *are* the West Coast. Northern California is so different from Southern California that there have been attempts in the past to separate the state in two, but it has never come about.

[WynterWynd]

So true about the wet suits to surf in!:T

If Cali ever splits, that means I will have been a born and raised Rebel, turned Yankee!:rotfl:

And right you are.

For everyone that doesn't know this:
There's a continent called Europe. The UK isn't on that continent but it's pretty close. Close enough to geographically belong to it.

Then, there's a political entity called the European Union, where some of the countries in Europe are combining, much like the USA. The UK is part of that union, but as yet doesn't use the common monetary unit, the euro. The UK chooses to keep using the Pound Sterling, for very good reasons. This union sometimes gets called "Europe", much like inhabitants of the USA tend to call their country "America".

"That's all for geography today, people. There's going to be a surprise test tomorrow."

Edited to correct my own lack of knowledge, as will be pointed out by stOrm a couple of posts ahead

[WynterWynd]

[Sequoia]

I am in California- however, I am in Northern California, and therefor flat out refuse to identify myself as southwest. Northern and Southern California are almost like completely different states, really. Give me the redwoods and Ireland-imitating coastlines any day over the busy, loud, hollywood-ified, surfer southern cali *chuckles* Don't get me wrong, lovely place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there. Happy where I am.

Hopefully I'll get to live there someday.

Wow, I visited there once- the heat nearly killed me! It's even worse inland than in San Diego. We stayed at the Mission Inn though, that was beautiful. And you've got one of the coolest Pagan shops I've ever been to! If we'd stayed in CA we'd probably be there now... Hubby was looking at going to school at UC Riverside but we decided it would be cheaper (and cooler) to go home.

Yes, the Mission Inn is definitely beautiful, and very expensive, too! I'm assuming that you visited the Dragon Marsh (aka Walmart for Witches, lol), which is close to the Mission Inn? I enjoy the fact that they carry a huge variety of items that you can't find in too many other pagan shops, however, the salespeople there really bother me. I prefer Ananda's Bookstore which is over by UCR. It's a lovely shop, and has great atmosphere, too. That's what I like best. ^_^

Yeah, the Mission Inn was a bit expensive but I didn't mind. ;) I was bothered a bit by the Dragon Marsh people but I chalk that up to my aversion to people talking to me... 8O And they had some really incredible handmade books!

Ehh, it happens. ;)

For the record, I'm originally from Florida. The state can actually be divided into three parts: the Panhandle, which is Deep South; the northern half of the Peninsula, which is the eleventh Canadian province; and the southern half of the Peninsula, which is to Cuba what Taiwan is to mainland China.

Contrary to Sir Phoenix Blue I currently live in Florida and have all my life. I can tell you that there is much more to it than what he describes. Didn't get out much Phoenix?? :lol:

I'm in Tacoma, Wa. now, but spent most of my life in Texas and consider it my home. I was born in Virginia and spent many happy times there, as my grandmother lived in Charlottesville. We always went to visit for holidays. Let's see, Va., Ga., S.C., N.C., Pa., Texas, Wa. I imagine I will be back to Texas someday. I miss it.

[Élistariel]

I'm in North Carolina, Mocksville and Greensboro. Yeah, everytime we tell someone we're from Mocksville, they think we're from Knoxville. Ugh.
I was born in New Orleans, LA, moved to FL before I was 1. Until age 3, I lived in Homestead, FL. Lived in Mocksville when I was 4, and in Miami until age 7.
Airplane anyone?

It's nice to know there's at least one more out there :floating:

[Autumn Clair]

I noticed the poll, a lot from Mid/North Atlantic. That's funny cause I haven't talked to anyone in my area. I'm in Pennsylvania.

~Saoirse Aiyana

[Midnight Siren]

Illinois here.

[crystal autumnwind]

Right this very second, I am living in the Florida Keys. We've been here a little over a year and should be here about another year and a half.

DH is military, so over the last 6 years, we have lived in South Carolina, Texas, and Alaska.

But North Carolina is my home. It's where I was born and raised and where most of my family is. No matter where we go, I will always consider it home. It's where we will retire at. I miss it so much!!

[Raindancer]

I was all set to tick off my area on the poll but there wasn't anyplace to vote. I live in New Zealand, 1200 miles from Sydney Australia. Close but no cigar... Maybe you should have given Australasia which includes both NZ and Australia, instead of just Australia. Meanwhile, if anyone's keeping track of such things, make a mental note that along with everything else, there's one from New Zealand also.
Blessed Be
Raindancer

I live in the only state in the country where you can show people where you live by holding your hand up and pointing to a spot on it. :hehehehe:

Michigan. Land of birch forests, freshwater inland seas, rocky cliffs, and rolling dunes. Oh, and don't forget the burnt out shell of a city, Detroit :rolleyes:

I live in Royal Oak, though, which is the coolest place on earth. Everywhere you look, pagans, goths, club kids, families, gay men and women, artists, writers, wall street types, all cohabitating peacefully. Who'd a thunk it?

[Dark Unicorn]

I live in Australia... at the bottom of the equator. :P But Australia still rocks. Most people who live in different countries love Australia, and I can't really say "Yeah, it's great" because I haven't seen anything. I'll tell you something though, Australian politics suck.
