    Do you mean like a baby, or like a new resident?

    How about infantile, juvenile, childish, green, babyish, childish, callow, naive, tenderfoot, budding, greenhorn, fledgling, virgin, rookie, beginner, newbie.

    Fawking N00b is a describing term that is both for a person that's new as well as being itself, a relatively (15 years?) new term. N00bish would be, I suppose, the proper adjective form. 'Newbie' has been around for a while.

    If you mean, what are some adjectives FOR 'a person who hasn't been around for long', you might like these lovely words (some do doubleduty as nouns):

    Unripe
    Rookie
    Fledgling
    Wet-Behind-the-Ear
    Callow
    Interloping
    Naive
    Freshman
    Fresh-Off-the-Turnip-Truck
    straight-off-the-boat
    ...and one for the erudites: Puerile

    These are better nouns, but can be used creatively to describe with ease:
    Young'un
    F.N.G.
    JohnnyComeLately
    POG/pogish
    Tenderfoot.

    The adjetive that best describes someone that has been around for a long time is "longevical"
