[JaniceO]

Too far :sad:. 2,611 miles. I guess it's better than the 4,692 miles when we lived in Hawaii or the 5,208 when we lived in Italy. But it's still about 2,600 miles too far.

[Amira]

11,000 km or 6700 miles, if you measure over the Pacific. It's slightly further if you measure over the Atlantic. That's to either set of parents. The closest we have lived is 1/2 block.

[Gailmegan]

17 miles (25 min drive time)

[Hen]

8 miles from my in-laws (we used to live across the street) and the same from my dad, step-mom (they live around the block from in-laws)

[Crissy]

We are 4 miles from my husband's parents and 22 miles from my dad.

[Mosaicmind]

Well, so far I am one of only two of us that answered: they aren't living, we have no contact, or I don't know. I haven't had contact with my parents since the summer of 2005 and since then I found out they aren't even my biological parents.

[Kathleen in VA]

[bbkaren]

we live about an hour and a half away but it's only about 60 miles, so I choose "other"...

[twoxcell]

My parents our about 10 miles away from us and my in-laws are probably about 20-25 miles away.

[The Girls' Mom]

We are 790 miles away from ANY family. My bio-dad, and inlaws are all in TN. Some days it seems too far, some days just right. :001_smile:

[bairnmama]

My parents = 1104 miles

My xIL = 774 miles

My xdh = 6413 miles :D

 

I couldn't resist putting in that last one, lol! but it's sad for my dc that they haven't seen their father since last Oct. They might get to see him this November for a few days.

[4everHis]

I live 200 yards from my mother-in-law, though.

[jubilation]

[JudoMom]

We're 863 from my parents and 816 from dh's parents. My parents and dh's parents are 653 miles from each other, so we can't even visit them at the same time.

[~Tara~]

about 360 miles from my mom

roughly 430 from my mother in law

and around 1150 from my father in law

 

This is the furthest we've lived from them.

For our first year of marriage we lived mere blocks from mom and mil. Then we moved..wow...65 miles?? as the crow flies, sure LOL anyway...

Then we were 240 from my mom. His mom had moved and was about 15 miles from us.

We moved again and were 175 from my mom and 80 from his.

 

Sorry, got carried away with that nifty little gadget.

[peachskittles]

420 miles from my parents

 

1270 miles from my SO's mom (used to live in same city, then we moved 510 miles away from her...then she moved to CA...)

 

190 miles from my SO's dad

 

Guess who we see the most?

[Mynyel]

According to Bing I live 2438.2 miles from my parents. That's a long walk.

[Katiebug_1976]

We live about 2000 miles from my parents and about 350 miles from dh's family.

[Mom23Boys]

Next door to my in-laws. We actually fenced our backyards in together.

 

About 3 miles, maybe a little less from my mom (dad is deceased).

[Katiebug_1976]

~15 miles from my parents, 50 yards from DH's parents. Being so close is both good and bad.

 

I will agree with this, but ffom the other perspective. We live far from our families, and it has its pro's & con's.

[FaithManor]

I live in the "Bermuda Accute Triangle"! :D

 

My parents, two blocks north.

 

My brother, one block east.

 

My mother in law, six miles north-east.

 

Thankfully, dh's sibs - 1200 and 1400 miles away. Whew!

 

Faith

[gardenmom5]

My parents are deceased. When my mother was living, she lived in the same town.

 

My mil had been living 900 miles away - and everyone liked it that way. she now lives with sil, and is 13 miles.

[JoyfulMama]

I chose "other."

My parents live in their RV. They have been as close as in the driveway, and as far away as.... hmm.... more than 3,000 miles.
