Does changing my address 5 times affect my N-400 application?
My wife and I moved to the US on Sep 2014. We lived in Delaware for 6 months and then moved to Sacramento California. For medical treatment we had to move to San Diego on Feb 2017. And our treatment has done and we will move to Maryland next 5-6 months. We have informed USCIS every time by filling out AR-11. One of my friends said, even though you guys had filled AR-11, Changing your address too much and moving multiple times in the States will negatively affect your N-400 Application when you want to apply for citizenship. We would be eligible to apply next year. I am so worried about what he said, Is that true? Does moving 5 times in the states in 5 years will negatively impact our application?

No, absolutely not. You can move as many times as you want and there are no negative implications on your status or your citizenship application whatsoever. Just make sure you document all the prior addresses on the application and make sure you have done the AR11.
