¶ 16 The trial court concluded that Mr. Drake's intention to return is immaterial. Legal authority shows otherwise. A residence "is the place where a person lives as either a temporary or permanent dwelling, a place to which one intends to return, as distinguished from a place of temporary sojourn or transient visit." State v. Pickett, 95 Wash.App. 475, 478, 975 P.2d 584 (1999). If Mr. Drake maintained his residence at the New Washington Apartments and intended to return there, he was under no duty to change his registration to another residence or declare that he had no fixed residence.
