Apart from his time as a soldier, Socrates never left Athens. Had he accepted exile, he likely would have escaped execution.
Socrates didn’t just consider Athens his home, Athens was his job; he could not abandon his post in Athens because he felt he had been placed there by the god(s), and one must never abandon one’s post even if one suffers death as a result.
