What counts as your hometown? Where you were born, or where you grew up?

What counts as your hometown? Where you were born, or where you grew up?

It is an entirely arbitrary decision, you can choose the town you just moved to last week if you like, or indeed somewhere you've only been once

Hey, where I'm from, TN=Tennessee, and I know Tennessee isn't in India, so I got no idea where TN is. All I know is that TN is somewhere in India and a large portion of the population speaks Hindi, so there's a chance that Hindi is a major language spoken in TN.

Oggys right, Hindi is even lesser known in TN than English...go figure.
From maharashtra onwards (thats like three quarters of the way south of the country) the states are collectively called south india, you'd be hard pressed to find a lot of hindi in these states.

EDIT: That's where all your doctors and shit come from btw, move towards the north-north east and you've got your taxi drivers. All your grocery store owners come from the central states or the eastern states. XD

Bellerose, New York

Good: Can walk around at night with the only worry that a street cat is in a bad mood. I'm the middle of all good hang out spots with friends near by. My job is blocks away, and finding a job is possible. I was accepted at three. 

Bad: Painfully boring. At the edge of the city, a train ride away, yet held back by parents. Too quiet. Well... Quiet for those not from the country.

Topsham, Maine

Good: It's a nice little town. Close enough to the ocean that the weather stays fairly mild.

Bad: Not only do you not only have any idea where this town is, but if you where to pronounce it you probably put the 's' and 'h' together to make a 'sh' sound. It's pronounced tops-ham.

Good: It's the perfect size, you're in Florida with no tourists, we have a very large river (I like that) the people here are nice

Bad: It's too small for anything exciting to happen here like a concert from people we know (except that one Flobots/Crash Kings/Paper Tounges show a while back), no tourists come here because there's nothing to tour here, our river is brown, and I lied the people here are jerks to anyone they don't know
