I took this before. I got California and Seattle accents. I'm from Chicago and haven't visited either of those places.

I'm just minutes/hours away from these places.
And I also have a good color in NY, which is where I was born.

Wow. It's really accurate. I was born in Raleigh/raised in Charlotte, but I've lived in Greensboro (~2 hours north) since 2008. :
