   One of the great things about turning 18, for me, was that I gradually started living in one place for a year at a time or more. I've now lived in this house longer than my mother has lived at any one address.

     @Ailbhe I had the opposite, at 18 I was in college and from then until I was about 30 I moved about once a year (sometime more sometimes less not always 'voluntarily'). It wasn't until I bought my own house I got to stop moving again. Unlike Kerrie I usually had somewhere I could run to (except the once..)

     I went back and counted - not including times I stayed somewhere for less than a week because of something falling through - I lived in 23 places in 12 years. (some were a couple of weeks because of gaps between rentals or the like but involved packing and unpacking)
