Like most questions about Shakespeare's life, we don't really know the answer. Here are some suggestions:

1. Some historians have speculated that William and Anne may have lived with William's parents at Henley Street, Stratford.

2. Germaine Greer, in her excellent biography of Anne Shakespeare, Shakespeare's Wife, says that it was a firm rule that if a couple was to live together, they needed their own place to live. She cites as a possibility that, although they were married, Will lived with his parents and Anne with hers until they were able to get their own place.

3. Alternatively, Greer suggests that they could have afforded to rent the cheapest form of hovel (a cottage). This would make them similar to most other poor and newly married couples.

The romantic story of Shakespeare's "banishment" from Stratford for poaching is apocryphal and probably untrue. At the very least, it is totally unsubstantiated. But Shakespeare did leave his hometown of Stratford and move to London. His motives were probably to look for work which he could not find in Stratford (and he had a family to support).

Shakespeare was married in 1582. We don't really know what he was up to for the next ten years or so except that he and Anne had three kids. I guess that he tried to make a living in Stratford somehow, and when that didn't work out he went to London to try to make a success in the theatre business.

After Ann Hathaway and William Shakespeare married on November 28, 1582, they took up residence on Henley Street in Stratford, where their first child was born six months later; this address was also the home of Shakespeare's father John.

Nowhere, at least at first. He was married in late November 1582, and by mid-1585 he was still in Stratford. Sometime after that he moved to London.

To London. That is presumably why he left his family--to go to London and work.
