The source claims that Jolie will be moving out of Los Angeles as soon as her twins Vivienne and Knox turn 18. "She's eyeing several locations abroad. She'll be very happy when she's able to leave Los Angeles."
The twins are currently 17 years old.

Jolie purchased the home in 2017 for $24.5 million, which features six bedrooms and ten bathrooms. The home has some impressive Hollywood roots, with it serving as the home of the storied Hollywood director and producer Cecil B. DeMille, with him serving as one of the major figures in silent and sound cinema of the early 1900s.
Charlie Chaplin lived next door to DeMille, with him later purchasing Chaplin's estate and merging them, resulting in the property that is now under Jolie's name.

“When you have a big family, you want them to have privacy, peace, safety,” she said. “I have a house now to raise my children, but sometimes this place can be… that humanity that I found across the world is not what I grew up with here.”
As for her future and where she'll be living, Jolie has a few options. “I’ll spend a lot of time in Cambodia. I’ll spend time visiting my family members wherever they may be in the world," she said.
