No but I know people who have. If you wind up trying to "settle", you may end up bitter or maybe not. All you can do is follow your heart. I don't have family holding me back. I would answer the call if they needed me around, how ever.
I happen to live in a city where my younger sibling currently lives and my older brother followed her dragging my eldery parent and me along. After a year he left us & moved to his own place. I took a huge cut in salary & have been miserable ever since.
I think in my entire high school class, I was the only graduate who went away to college, a thousand miles from home. Everyone else either stayed in-state, or went to a college affiliated with their church in an adjacent state. I couldn't wait to get away, and I loved it, and it was the best move of my life. I never lived within a 12-hour drive of my home town again.
I recently left my family to move out of state. It was hard to do but I don't regret getting out of my comfort zone.
