美国人分享:印象中美国人喜欢频繁搬家,这是否属实?
正文翻译
Some movies and tv series would have you believe that it's totally normal for Americans to just switch jobs and move from, I don't know, Boston to Seattle and change their lives just like that every couple years or so. And maybe leave their parents behind thousands of miles away and only see them for Christmas if even.
Is that a thing?
有些电影和美剧会让你相信:“美国人每隔两年就会非常爽快地换工作然后从比如说波士顿搬到西雅图乃至改变他们的生活”是完全正常的。也许还会把他们的父母留在几千英里外,只会为了过圣诞节才回来看他们。
这是否是常见情况?

A lot do. My wife and I have moved to several different states before we met and after we married. I assume our kids will roam a bit too when they are grown. Plenty of people also don’t move and grow up in the same state they live their whole life. Both ways of life are common.
很多人都是如此。我和我妻子在认识之前和结婚之后已经搬去过好几个不同的州了。我估计我们的孩子长大后也会去漫游一番。还有很多人是不会搬家的,而且他们会在自己长大的那个州过完一辈子。这两种生活方式都很常见。

But where I grew up, there are a TON of people who never leave an general, 50-mile, rural-ish area. Maybe they'll move to the larger nearby town for a job, but never more than an hour or two away. 80 or 90 percent of their family will be within a two-hour drive. That's just the way it is. May parents' families were all like that. My mom's side were farmers so of course you had to stay near the land, but even still most of the family were teachers. They didn't move far. My dad's side were also blue-ish and white-ish (e.g., teachers) collar workers, and they all pretty much stayed in Iowa. The adventurous ones moved to the "big city" (75,000 people) or across the state. You bloomed where you were planted, and that's just how it worked. Other places were for other people. My parents moved out to Salt Lake--the first time they ever lived anywhere other than Iowa or South Dakota (where they went to college), and the first time they ever lived in a city of more than 25,000 people--only because I'm an only child, I moved away, and their parents have all died,
(爱荷华,现居犹他)但在我长大的地方,有太多的人从来没有离开过一片方圆50英里的乡村地区。也许他们会为了某份工作搬到附近更大的城镇,但绝不会超过一两个小时的车程。他们有八九成的家人都在两小时的车程内。这就是实际情况。我父母的家庭都是这样的。我妈那一边是农民,所以你当然要待在离土地很近的地方了,即使如此,大部分家族成员都是教师,而他们也没有搬到很远的地方。我爸那一 边也是蓝领和白领(比如说教师),他们几乎全都待在爱荷华州。有冒险精神的人则搬到了“大城市”(人口7.5万那种),或是跨州。你被种在哪里,就在哪里开花,这就是个中的原理。其他地方是为其他人准备的。我的父母搬离了,他们去了盐湖城,这是他们生平第一次生活在爱荷华州或南达科他州(他们在那里上的大学)以外的地方,也是他们生平第一次生活在一个人口超过2.5万人的城市,而他们这么做完全是因为我是独生子女,而且我搬走了,而他们的父母全都不在世了。

And there are, of course, those people who can't afford to move. Single moms who have to live near their families for child care or to live as a family unit to save on expenses. People stuck with one job that they can't leave because they can't save enough money to even have a few months where they're not working. Many of those folks don't frequent Reddit, I'd guess.
当然了,也有一些人负担不起搬家的开支。单身妈妈为了照顾孩子,不得不住在家人附近,或是为了节省开支而以家庭为单位过活。那些在某份工作中不能自拔的人,他们也没有能力离开,因为他们存不够钱,就他们存的钱都无法支撑自己几个月不工作的开销。我猜,这些人中有很多人都不太上红迪。

And don't let the movies fool you -- there are certainly costs with really big moves, especially if you have children. Uprooting a family takes a toll, often setting kids back academically and socially. So families are hesitant to move frequently, especially when their kids are in school (5-18).
不要让自己被电影愚弄了,真正的大搬家毫无疑问是伴随着各种成本的,如果你有孩子就更是如此了。举家迁离是要付出代价的,经常会耽误孩子的学业和社交。所以很多家庭都会对频繁搬家心生犹豫,如果他们的孩子还在学龄(5-18岁),就更是如此了。

It's true. The average American at least lives in the state where they were born. This is probably less true as you move up the education ladder, where you'll get more people who will prioritize moving across the country for work.
这是真的。普通美国人至少也会住在他们出生的那个州。而如果你在受教育程度方面不断向上攀爬,这可能就不太属实了,你在教育程度很高的群体中,会发现有更多人会优先考虑为了工作在全国范围内迁移。

To give an example: I was born and raised in Minnesota, now live in the Philadelphia area for work. I have a graduate degree from a well-known school. Most of my relatives were born in South Jersey, and they rarely ever leave the town where they live. One of my aunts acts like a town that's about 20 minutes away is on the other side of the world, i.e., "if I had to get my taxes done there, I'd have to drive all the way down to [name of town] and there's no way I'm traveling that far!" This particular relative has a car she bought in 2006 and it has about 40,000 miles on it.
举个例子:我在明尼苏达州出生、长大,现在为了工作住在费城地区。我拥有一所知名院校的研究生学位。我的大多数亲戚都出生在新泽西州南部,而且他们很少离开自己居住的小镇。我有个姑姑,她搞得得好像离这里约20分钟路程的小镇在地球另一边似的,举个例子,“如果必须去那里才能完成纳税,那我就必须一路开车去[镇名]了,想让我去那么远的地方,门儿都没有!”这位亲戚还有辆她2006年买的车,只跑了大约4万英里。

Yeah I'm working on my PhD in physics. I have lived in six states and two countries.
My parents were a cop and a schoolteacher who lived in NJ their entire lives before retiring to Florida like...last year. My brother works in corporate finance and has lived in four states and two countries.
Education and career choice does affect this.
(回)是的,我正在攻读物理学博士学位。我曾在六个州和两个国家生活过。
我的父母是警察和学校教师,他们在新泽西州生活了一辈子,直到去年才退休搬去佛罗里达州生活。我哥哥在企业里干财务,曾在四个州和两个国家生活过。
教育和职业选择确实会在这方面带来影响。

I totally agree with that changing as you move up the education ladder. Because of a mix of school, grad school, and work I moved a decent amount. I'm from Long island, NY. I went to undergrad in NY but 400 miles away, then worked in Nevada, did my masters in Indiana, worked in the upper peninsula of Michigan, moved to Wyoming for my PhD, then moved to Arizona where I currently live and work. I did all that moving between the ages of 18 and 30. I'm in a scientific field and I think only one of my coworkers at my large company is from Arizona originally. When I was in grad school it was similarly uncommon to meet someone in my grad program who was from the state we were actually in.
(回)我完全同意你关于教育程度的说法。出于学校、研究生院和工作方面的综合原因,我搬去过的地方还真不少。我来自纽约长岛。我在纽约州读的本科,但相距有400英里,之后去了内华达州工作,在印第安纳州拿到了硕士学位,在密歇根州上半岛工作,搬到怀俄明州读博士,然后搬到我现在生活和工作的亚利桑那州。我在18岁至30岁之间就完成了以上所有的搬迁。我从事的是科学领域的工作,我记得在我那个大公司里,只有一个同事是亚利桑那州本地人。我在读研究生的时候,在我的研究生项目中也同样很难碰到来自我们原本所属州的人。

where I’m from originally (Midwest) they call it brain drain. Those of us who go to college usually end up leaving, and it’s usually because there are much better paying jobs and more of them elsewhere.
(回)在我的家乡(中西部),他们称这种现象为人才流失。我们这些上过大学的人,到最后往往都会离开,而这通常是因为在其他地方,报酬更高的工作机会更多。

I think a lot of that is generational too. My parents were born and lived most of their lives right near where they grew up, but my brother, cousins and I each lived in at least three states and two countries.
It's a lot more common for younger generations to move like that.
我认为世代因素在其中占了很大一部分。我的父母出生并在他们长大的地方附近生活了大半辈子,但我的兄弟、表兄弟还有我,分别在至少三个州和两个国家生活过。
对年轻世代来说,这样的迁移要常见得多。

The thing is, I'm from Europe and even within European countries, which are far smaller and with much more convienent transport lixs than the US, I'd say it's far less common to relocate as frequently and "radically". Like, maybe you move once for college and/or to the nearest major city/capital (especially if you come from somewhere rural) and that's pretty much it. And that goes even in countries where jobs are geographically scattered like e.g. Germany.
问题是,我来自欧洲,即使在欧洲国家内部(而且这些国家比美国小得多,交通也便利得多),我觉得像这样频繁且“彻底”地搬家也是不常见的。比如,你可能会因为上大学或是去离你最近的大城市/首都(特别适用于你来自农村的情况)而搬一次家,也就差不多了。即使在德国这种工作地点很分散的国家也是如此。

It used to be more of a thing in the past where an upwardly mobile middle-class person might stay with the same company through their whole career and get transferred through different positions as they climbed the ladder. I myself experienced three parental corporate relocations growing up. Nowadays, people are more likely to hop jobs to move up and paid relocations are less common.

My family lives within 50 miles of where we were born. I did move away 2000 Miles for a couple years.
My wife's family is spread all over that map it looks like you shot it with a shotgun.
(宾夕法尼亚)我的家人住在距离我们出生地50英里的范围内。而确实有那么一两年,我搬到了2000英里以外的地方。
我妻子的家人则散居在整张美国地图上,看上去像是被霰弹枪打过一样。
