Are their any particular benefits or advantages to being born on federal land?
I was born in a hospital on a military base, which is considered federal property. Does this mean that I am not a resident of a particular state and are their any advantages or disadvantages to this. I think the same holds true for residents of Washington DC as it is not formally a state.
Answers:
None. Additionally, you are not born in to citizenship of a state, you are a citizen of a state by virtue of living there.
Yea, you're totally wrong. You're a resident of whatever state you live in, and if that happens to be the District of Columbia, then that's where you're a legal resident.
And you don't get anything special for being born on a military base.
No. U.S. citizenship is granted by place of birth but residency and citizenship in the various states is changeable. You are a resident of a state when you arrive with the intent to remain. You generally become a citizen of a state, and eligible to vote, about six weeks later.
