Think of every place you’ve ever considered “home.” Take the two that are the farthest distance apart. How far is it?
Mine is about 130 miles, but only because of one semester at an ill-fitting college. Otherwise it’s just 25 miles.

Between the town I grew up in in northern Indiana, to the house I owned in northeast North Carolina is roughly 800 miles.
I’ve lived in 3 geographic areas, arranged in close to an equilateral triangle, 600 miles on each edge.
5,570 miles from El Paso, TX to Heidelberg, Germany. Both locations were military assignments. If I count time deployed for a month or more I can get 6,261 (Ft. Irwin, CA to Bosnia).
3000 miles for me (East & West Coasts of the US). I was on the West Coast for only a year, but it was my home during that year.
A little under 7 miles, between the house I grew up in and the one I live in now.
When I was a kid, I couldn’t wait to grow up and leave town. Then I grew up, and decided it wasn’t so bad after all…
1280 from Sarasota to Ithaca. Palm Bay and Sarasota to other places in Upstate NY are pretty close contenders as well. I’ve never lived in any intervening states, although I’ve lived in 6 different towns between the two states.
7,000 miles from where I was born and lived for four years to the States.
Beyond that, about 550 miles between Michigan and NY.
Only about 25 miles between all 5 places I’ve lived.
About 4300 miles. Kansas City MO to Cambridge UK.
ETA: I didn’t really consider Cambridge “home”, though, I guess. I was there studying for a year. Kansas City to New York City is about 1200 miles, and both of those cities were more or less home at one time.
6240 miles (San Diego, CA to Florence, Italy).
5,884 miles from Monterey, CA (where I was born) to Augsburg, Germany (where my younger brother was born).
If we’re only counting places we remember, though, it would be 3,517 miles from Glen Burnie, MD (where I more-or-less grew up) to Pateley Bridge, England (where I spent the equivalent of 7th and 8th grades).
5,866 miles from my hometown in northern, Virginia and Novosibirsk, Russia where I lived for a time.
This was fun. I thought of my 2 international addresses, and 2 of my domestic ones:
5,999 miles from Tulsa, OK to Misawa, Japan
5,662 miles from Misawa Japan to Oxford, England
5,316 miles from Oxford, England to Palo Alto, CA
13,612 KM 8458 Miles
Clark AFB in the Philippines where I lived as a kid to NYC, where I live now.
7,602 miles
Honolulu, HI to Munich, Germany
7034 miles, Keflavik, Iceland to Yigo, Guam, both places I was stationed at for over a year each.
5694 miles from Hayward, California to Weilerbach, Germany (actually Ramstein, the calculator didn’t find Weilerbach)
2360 miles from Redlands, CA to Anchorage, AK.
Between the Bay Area, where I live now, and Kinshasha, Congo, where I lived when I was 10, 8,942 miles.
