Similarly, is hometown and birthplace the same thing?
Your birthplace is of course, where you are born. Your hometown would be the town you associate your childhood with, usually where you grew up and sometimes where your parents and longtime friends still remain.
Also Know, are you from where you were born or raised? People tend to rep where they were born. And people tend to rep where they were raised or where they spent most of their childhood until they became adults. For some, it's both (being raised in the same place you were born).
Likewise, people ask, how do you determine your hometown?
The definition of hometown is the place where you grew up or have lived for a long time. The town where someone lived during elementary and primary school is an example of hometown.
What is the city you were born in?
Your place of birth is the city in which you were born. Your residence at birth is the location of your home at the time of your birth. They might be the same but may not be. If you were born on the way to the hospital, that is your place of birth (which could be another different city).
