Did not move at all or moved within last 5 years


Explanation:
"nicht länger als 5 Jahre verzogen sind"

Die (scheinbare) logische Umkehrung (Negation weglassen, Relation umkehren) führt zu:

"innerhalb der letzten 5 Jahren verzogen sind"

Die beiden beschriebenen Mengen sind *nicht* gleich. In der ersten Menge sind diejenigen, die gar nicht umgezogen sind drin, in der zweiten Menge sind sie draussen.
