Domicile
The place that someone intends to serve as his or her permanent home. Although any person may have more than one home, each person may only have one domicile.

Some factors for consideration in determining a person's domicile include where that person pays state income tax and where the person is registered to vote.

A person's domicile frequently determines which state's laws apply to the interpretation of legal documents relating to the person.
