I got high scores in the Northeast and South. Currently living in Staten Island and worked very hard to ditch that accent when I lived upstate NY. Hope I don't get it back, because it's the worst accent of all. I kinda like Southern

I worked for a major company and worked with people from all over the country. Got really good at guessing what area they were from. Even guess a gal where she was from that had been in the midwest for over 30 years but one word gave her away.

Wow, this was way off! My answer was Philadelphia. I'm Asian, born and raised in Southern California and now live in Arizona. Never been to Philadelphia.

Mine was way off, too. I was born and bred in New Orleans (now live in TX and have lived in the south, all my life) and it pegged me as being from The Midland.
