What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The West

Your accent is the lowest common denominator of American speech. Unless you're a SoCal surfer, no one thinks you have an accent. And really, you may not even be from the West at all, you could easily be from Florida or one of those big Southern cities like Dallas or Atlanta.

Unlike most memes, this one seems eerily accurate. They seem to have identified a few really crucial differences in how we speak: they seem able to pin down accents pretty much by metro area--at least, for those of us who grew up east of the Mississippi.
