Update: I retook it, there were different questions, and it was pretty accurate. Mine had Aurora IL, Rockford IL, and Madison WI. My dad grew up in Milwaukee so this isn't weird to me but actually eerily accurate because I probably learned his dialect and my moms (chicago born & raised).
Mine got pretty close to my northern New England roots, but I did probably answer leaning that way. Many of them I regularly use two or more of the options, or used to use one and use another now. Which completely reflects the fact that I've now lived in the PNW as long as I lived in New England.

I got Springfield and Oklahoma City. Not super close. I somehow picked up using soda and pop interchangeablely growing up, which I think swayed it though.

Mostly accurate--got Arlington/DC, which is perfect since I'm in the DC suburbs...but then I got Yonkers. My family is from Western PA so that was odd.

Mine is like a heat map of where I have lived: red though NJ, NY, and CT. Most similar cities are Newark, NJ which is very close to where I live now, Philly where I lived for 3 years after college and Springfield, MA which is close to where I grew up in CT. Pretty cool.
