Homes were moved to an unknown location (9)

I believe the answer is:

somewhere

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'location' is the definition.
(I know that somewhere is a type of location)

'homes were moved' is the wordplay.
'moved' is an anagram indicator.
'homes'+'were'='homeswere'
'homeswere' with letters rearranged gives 'SOMEWHERE'.

'to an unknown' is the link.
This may not be right. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for somewhere that I've seen before include "location's vague" , "Indefinite or unknown location" , "uncertain regarding place" , "'. . . . . . . . . Over the Rainbow' (song)" , "In an unspecified place" .)
