Should I put my address on my resume

Including your address isn't that important, people will assume you live locally. What is important is to make sure you include reliable ways of contacting you, preferably a cell phone number and an email address. It's weird how people sometimes apply and we find we don't have a way of contacting them, the number they give doesn't work or whatever.

I've been working remotely for a while now, and it's been going well. Though I'm not rich, I make enough to live comfortably. If anyone is interested, I'm happy to share what I do and how I got started!

I put my city on my resume so that they know I'm not commuting from too far, but I leave my address off. Rent is expensive so to afford it, I don't live in an especially good area. I don't want that to be held against me by a hiring manager.

I don’t think it’s necessary. The city and state in which you live, a phone number and an email will suffice.

It could also be a way that an employer would discriminate against you, discounting you as a candidate, based on your distance from the job, even if you have a reliable mode of transportation.

I have realized I grew up in a household where my dad did not treat my mom as an equal. He belittles her, is rude and convinced his way is the only way.

It is painful to say, but some of this shows up in me and in my relationship. I am starting to catch myself, and it to me seems to be more of a reaction than anythjng that is ever intentional.

Wondering if anyone has dealt with something similar, and any success in making changes besides therapy. Cont. in comments
