Fun test! Mine doesn't match where I live now, but my top 3 cities were SLC, Madison or Milwaukee. They are the same color as Mpls, where I lived the longest. The same color is in Cleveland, where I also lived a long time.

I had taken that test a while ago and I thought the outcome was funny.The test said that I am from Boston or maybe New Jersey. But, I am originally from Germany, I have only lived in the US for 10 years and still speak with a heavy accent. I never noticed that I picked up the Boston dialect.

Scary accurate. Two of the cities were Toledo, OH and Detroit, MI. I live between the two.

HA! I think I confused the test since I was raised in the PNW by a southern mom then proceeded to move everywhere in the US with the military--in which my friends are from all over the place. My top 3 cities were: Richmond, VA Montgomery, AL Mobile, AL I think the south and the east coast have more "slang" so it was easier to find those in that group. They asked nothing about using the word DUDE--or it would have swung me more left on that map  |

Mine was all over the place, but it appears they gave the most weight to my answer of "y'all" and "18 wheeler". I grew up all over the country, but always in the southern HALF of the country (both coasts though) so that's probably a correct assesment - I'm split down the middle in dialect.

Where are the drive through liquor stores? I have never heard of such a thing.
Mine was pretty accurate. Northeast near New York and New Jersey.

The ones I've seen were in FL and Louisiana.

Alaska too
My results were pretty close. They picked up my NW/Alaska roots.

I am apparently from Florida not the Midwest. Right now Florida sounds pretty good, what's it like 80 degrees there or something?
