Where have you lived?

[AmericanPie]

I'm curious to know - what's the furthest you've lived away from Meadow Lane?

Where have you lived up until now and how does the place you live compare to where you grew up?

I thought it would be interesting to share experiences and let's see how far and wide the Notts fanbase has spread!

Some how I missed the "I" off "I'm".

19 miles away now after being born and raised in Southwell, 14 miles away from the ground . Never wandered far as not had the need to, but did once have a long 3 month holiday in New Zealand during the football season, that's almost living away!

I have always lived in Aspley, Nottingham.

I currently live 4.8 miles away from Meadow Lane, funnily enough when I lived with my parents it would've been closer to 5 miles. I made a bad decision to move to this other terrible address for a brief time, but luckily, my parents let us stay with them until we purchased our current house. When staying there, I would've been 5.6 miles away. I'm very local to my roots.

Just living the dream with two home addresses, one in a quaint little town in North Wales. It’s peaceful and the air is fresher than a daisy. I used to live in an Old Colonial property, older than dirt - with water frontage and three bedrooms. Now I’ve got a pad in the land of sunshine and palm trees. But I think I’m settled now. Just did a quick Google search and it turns out I’m 91 miles away from Meadow Lane. Beautiful stadium, by the way. The pitch and atmosphere are top-notch.

Mapperley, Edwalton, West Bridgford, Leeds and now Manchester. At least 1.4 miles, 4 miles, up to a maximum of 74 miles.

To expand on my previous comment, I would be approximately 4,823 miles away from Meadow Lane. With an ocean separating us, it makes it quite challenging to get there. However, I did manage to take a flight a few seasons ago. It's probably been about 5 or 6 seasons now.

Before getting married I lived in Alfreton which was a bit over 15 miles to the Baseball Ground and just over 16 miles for my visit to Meadow Lane, Notts v Rams in the 1950's

You missed one of the few highlights of a truly dreadful season! I remember going to Burnley on the following Saturday, optimistic that we had finally turned the corner, we lost 2-1......

I’ve lived in Clifton, Nottingham all my life and have always been a proud resident of this wonderful community. Although I live about 6.6 miles from Meadow Lane, it’s still a special place to me and holds many fond memories.

clifton had many notts fans, its one of those areas where fans settled after the rebuilding of the meadows began. i would say where i lived with my parents, there was more notts fan but there has been an increase in those over the river during my time.

i frequently bump into notts fans in beeston, most are very upbeat and friendly.

I'm originally from Hull but have lived in Doncaster for 50 years

As a lifelong resident of Nottingham, I don't have an exciting background story worth sharing. Despite this, I have contemplated leaving the city several times. My only reason for staying is Notts County - a club that I am passionate about. Frankly, I don't have much appreciation for the city itself.

Born and brought up in Nottingham, I'm too young to make my own decisions, but I'm not far from being able to relocate, which I likely will do once college is completed. It all depends on where I can find employment.

I was born on Meadow Lane about a quarter of a mile from the ground, I used to walk past the ground to go to primary school, I now live approximately 11 miles away.
