How much family do you have within 50 miles of you?

I have my 4 of my 5 siblings about 60 miles from me, but Mom is moving to TN right after Christmas..............

Just 50 miles? Then just one aunt and uncle. My father lives 65 miles (or so) north of us, my sister about 40 miles north of him but works in the same city Dad lives in. It's only about 1-1/2 hours drive, so we see them fairly often.

Just my mom and dad and sister and niece. The rest of them live in Indiana. But we don't really talk to them a lot. So I have my dads mom and my aunt and cousin that we talk to. Its really sad to think about having a big family like we do but not having contact with them.

Susie its going to be tough to have your mom living in TN but its a beautiful state! You will love visiting there!

Everyones life is so very busy, it's tough but it's cheap to talk on the phone or online...So it's ok

Within 50 miles (80.45 km)? Ummm ... none. I went away to attend university and I stayed "away."

In a state of misery w/o my Bella
The only one near us is my husbands son and he lives 80 miles away, but is in our town everyday. The rest of my family is 600 and 800 miles away! And my husband's daughter broke our hearts and moved to Utah this summer and that's 2 days away!!

I think most of my family does, but the only family we really associate with is my Mom's and i have an aunt, an uncle and a cousin and then my mom & dad, my sister, and my Grandpa (mom's dad) I have 3 aunts, 2 uncles and a whole slew of cousins on my Dad's side but I could pass them on the street and not know who they were
I do see my Grandma (Dad's mom) every once in awhile. My half-brother lives in Texas, but I haven't really seen or spoken to him in, oh 11 years

On "my side of the family I have one cousin who lives just a couple of miles away. My parents are about 85 miles and my sis is in a different state.
Most of Neil's family lives within 50 miles except one brother and a few nieces and nephews.

Most of my family, which isn't very large at all, are still in my state but the important ones, mom and dad, bailed from our miserable weather. Dad split 28 years ago to Tennesee and now he's in Southern California. My mom bailed 4 years ago to SW Florida and now she's in Georgia. She'd had enough of the hurricanes.

Almost everyone is within 50 miles. I do have some cousins in Wisconsin, and one in California.

I have the son next door, and I really don't have much family on my side that I speak with anymore. Dad was somewhere in GA, no idea where... DH's family is all within 75 miles, cept for the nephew in the Marines is somewhere in the Midwest, I forget where...
We do have a crowd when DH's family gets together, lots of in-laws and cousins.

No one within 50 miles of me. But my Mom and Dad are just a little more far from that..about a hour's drive.

None.
My parents are usually in Arizona in the winter.
One brother and his family are in Seattle, another brother and his family are in St Paul.
Both surviving sisters and my other two brothers are in Nebraska, and my eldest niece and her kids are in Oklahoma.
Cousins are in South Dakota and California.
