4200 miles. The distance doesn't really bother me now what with Facetime, etc. I can jump on a few planes and be home in ~14hrs if I need to too.
I do miss fish & chips though. It's something that Americans are completely unable to cook.

Same, Cape Town?
Probably about 100 metres.
According to Google I'm 71 metres.
My sister is 10,520 miles away though.

Not far for me, I stayed within about 10 miles of where I've always lived (bar "Uni" period) but the rest of my family moved away from where I live. Some about 20 miles or so, some over 200. Doesn;t bother me, I see them when I see them

About this.

London to Cardiff.... Couple hundred miles?
Myself and my siblings couldn't afford to live where we grew up and ended moving to different parts of the country which was hard for our parents as it was a few hours travel in opposite directions to visit.
They've since moved somewhere cheaper and nicer so it's looking like we might all be moving back to the same ish area. Probably forcing out some locals in the process who now can't afford to live in their home town.

5 miles from my mothers.
Although when we eventually buy a place it will be a lot closer to our friends and further away from the mother!

Moved across Europe at 22. Never moved home almost 18 years later. Don't miss it. Made loads of great new friends and started own family

I saw moving away from home as a positive thing - they do my head in.
Moved about 200 miles, sometimes it doesn't feel far enough.

I didn't make the first move, as soon as I finished 6th form my parents sold the house and moved from Saffron walden to Vienna, so technically it was then moving away from me 
But, moved to Edinburgh for uni for 5 years, spent a year in Farnborough, now been in Taiwan for 5 years. I've never checked exactly how far away that is from my mum now, but it's not exactly down the road.
Edit: According to Google, 9,757km.

I moved ~190miles away for University, then moved back up a few 100yards away from my folks.
Da da da da.

Born and bred on Notts but since I graduated I've lived in :
Leicester
London
Walsall
Nottingham
Birmingham
Nottingham again
A village near Donington Park
Newcastle where I'm settled for now.
I do miss my friends more now as I've settled down with a kid so just disappearing for the weekend and staying with mates isn't a possibility.
Love living here though with the nightlife, coast, fishing, camping and some amazing driving.

Moved 50 or so miles from a village into London thinking I would never return. Had a kid with the other half who is a self-confessed 'townie' (classy lady is from Slough) and I realised I needed village life again. Persuaded her to move back to my old village and we all love it. Weird thing is that we managed to buy a property in the middle of the village and from my bedroom window I can see into the church rectory gardens and the bench I used to get drunk on and snog girls about 25 years ago.
