I've often wondered this myself. Does the distance from the runner to the closest base determine occupancy? Or, is it the last base legally occupied?

For example, runner breaks from first to second:

1. Pitcher throws to second (without stepping off) with runner less than half way there - balk?
2. Pitcher throws to first (without stepping off) with runner more than half way to second - balk?
