Not a Yankee here. Born in Norfolk and raised in VA Beach about a mile from Gate 4 Little Creek.
Boston born, moved to the burbs as a kid...
but to keep the NJ theme, I lived off exit 4 in 1991 before moving to Philly in '92 (then detroit in '93)

Born in north Jersey, lived in DE and MD. Never home until now though.
My hometown is Roanoke, Virginia. My folks still live in the house where I grew up.
I lived in Richmond after college before I moved out here in 2000.
Born and raised in Baltimore.
Lived in Sparta, NJ for several years while working at the World Trade Center, #5 and #6.
Too much time working in Washington DC. I will never wash that out.
East Orange (for about a day), Newark, Hillside, East Brunswick, Bradley Beach, Babylon, New Brunswick, and then I was outta there. Used to ride my motorcycle down to Point Pleasant and sit on the seawall there when things seemed bad.

Moved up & down the East Coast on Naval bases as a kid. Born in South Carolina, spent quality time in Florida, Virginia, Massachusetts, New York, Maryland, and Connecticut, as I can recall. Folks finally settled in the DC Suburbs.
In my adult life post-Navy, my residence was primarily in Florida, less a few years in Manhattan and Long Island City / Astoria in Queens.

Spent some quality time at the Li'bary, Hon? I lived briefly in a quasi-crack house owned by my slum-lord ex FIL, on North Ave & Jones Falls Expressway.
Also worked at WTC/WFC, mostly at 250 Vesey with sporadic trips to Mitsui Trust in #2.

Raised in Carteret, NJ - exit 12 on the turnpike. Moved to the midwest at 17 and never went back except to visit family. It was still a small town when I was a kid. The milkman would do his deliveries in a horse cart. The local dump was a shooting range.
It brings back memories to see the maps of Sandy's effects since the town often shows up on the maps.

The city that Breads [ROFL1] Did you ever go to the movies at The Charles?

Did you eat in the cafeteria in #1? I don't remember the floor exactly, but seemed like it was in the 70's and had a great view of Liberty Island and Battery Park. Lots of good memories working in NYC [Beer]

I've got you all beat so far. Cape Cod. You'll have to be from Maine or England to be more "back east" than that.
And not from Provincetown, so no jokes from any Mass-holes...

My old man was from Far Rockaway. Does this give more or less street cred?
