No doubt about it, Philadelphia.
Where I was born and raised.

I did that earlier - the area's that identified my language was where my mom and dad grew up - very interesting.

Boston, Providence (RI) and Yonkers (NY)...how true, how true!

Raised in NYC and moved to Boston where I lived for over 30 years. Don't know where the Rhode Island comes from?

Turnpike? Only the Mass Pike...more likely the Expressway or Rt 128! My vacation home is off of Rt 95...way up by exit 264!

I moved to Calif. in 1948 at the age of 5. This test pegged me right on to Milwaukee, WI where I was born. How can that be???????

Mine said either Portland/Vancouver, which is where I grew up, and Salt Lake City, that I have only visited a few times, but did not mention Tenneessee or Texas where I also lived for a time. The funniest thing is around Portland/Vancouver people always tell me I have a southern accent. My grandparents on one side were Texans, and Kentuckians on the other side.

I'm not American either and came out as a New Yorker too. Is this the biggest melting pot of language, I wonder?

That is amazing! It pin pointed exactly where I live! I was born in Topeka, KS but moved to Texas when about 2, living in central west Texas until married… Sure goin' to pass this one on...

This test tells me I am from Tempe, AZ. I have never been there. I was born in GA, lived there until age 18, have lived all over the USA since then, being a military family, but never lived in AZ.

Mine was right on! Minneapolis/ St Paul area. Born and raised in Minnesota!
