This is interesting. According to the quiz, I have a "neutral" accent, which is associated with the lower Midwest, Pennsylvania, western Maryland, and northern West Virginia. I have never lived in this area, but the description does say I could just as easily be from somewhere else and that I may have moved around quite a bit as a child, which is true. But I challenge the notion that people from this part of the country don't have a regional accent. Many folks from the region, especially its southernmost reaches, speak with what sounds to me like a slight southern accent.

Southern, but I tone it back when speaking with Yankees or those people from California, as both seem to be unable to understand English when I speak naturally.
