Who Do You Talk Like?
I have been through the test a couple of times and came up with slightly different cities each time. I talk most like folks from Chattanooga, Huntsville, Columbus, GA, Montgomery, AL, B'ham, AL & Mobile. Least Like Springfield, MA, Philadelphia, PA, Detroit, Portland, OR & Minneapolis

Most like Cleveland (home town), Detroit, and Rockford.
Least like Bahstin, Providence, and Worcester.
It's got me pretty well pegged as South Jersey/Philadelphia.

That's a bit scary!! Mine came up Toledo, Detroit or Grand Rapids, MI.
I was born in Toledo and grew up in a small town about 45 miles South of Detroit, also lived and worked in Toledo before taking a job in the Grand Rapids area!!
Tacoma, Spokane and Salt Lake City for me. Since I grew up in Tacoma I think it is fairly accurate. Larry ---sagefisher---
Right on for me with Salt Lake, Stockton, Modesto. Been away from Idaho too long I guess.
Kinda close. Spokane, I have been to once. Salt Lake City, I was there once also when I was about 8 years old. Stockton, never been there. At least these cities are mostly on the west coast. I live in Sedro Woolley, WA about a hundred mile north of Seattle and grew up in Medford, OR which is in the south west portion of Oregon. Like I said at least they hit the west side of the country.

fairly close. Philly(grew up about 50 miles west of it),.
Richmond (live about 40 miles east of it)
Best,

it's all good drifts
Oops, too many public speaking classes. Quiz placed me in Wisconsin but, I am from central Indiana although I don't speak with a typical Hoosier accent (much). I was trained to speak "middle America unaffected English". It did peg me as from the Midwest.
Spent 2/3 of life just south of Philly.
