Your Dialect (quiz map)

Even thought I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago my results were south east/Florida. I think the result was because I chose ya'll (even though I interchange ya'll and you guys) for the first question, and my other answers were a bit scattered or I didn't have a word for some things.

*as I test I chose "you guys" and this time around I got Aurora IL and Michigan. I guess I'm a little surprised that one phrase on this quiz can change the region so drastically. Whelp, that was fun anyway.

Also San Jose and Fremont as secondary choices
 
honolulu and Kansas City
imI from ohio

- - - Post Merge - - -

For the road parallel to the highway we call it the shoulder ??
 
Apparently my three most similar ones are Newark/Paterson, Baltimore, and Boston. I grew up in New England, so this isn't too far off, but I'm not sure where Baltimore came from. Bonus: Least similar are Amarillo, Tulsa, and Lubbock.
 
Mine were all in Washington state. Makes sense, I guess that's pretty close to Canada.
 
Most: Salt Lake City, Modesto, and Fresno.

I live in Utah, and I've never heard of Modesto or Fresno.

Least: Baton Rouge, Jackson, and New Orleans.
 
Most Similiar- Pheonix, Tuscon, and Boise
Least Similar- Houston, Jackson, Birminghan

O hey
I live in Arizona. Nifty.
 
Most similar: San Jose, Glendale, Long Beach.

I grew up on the east coast.

Least similar: Detroit, Toledo, Grand Rapids.
 
Most: Baltimore, Washington DC & Richmond
Least: Detroit, Lubbock, Grand Rapids
 
Most similar: Oceanside, Corona, and Santa Ana/Irvine. All really close to each other in southern California, which is interesting since I live on the other side of the country and have never been anywhere near the west.

Least similar: New Orleans, Pittsburgh, and Worcester.
 
Most: Las Vegas, Paradise, and Henderson, all are in southern Nevada.
Least: (Jackson, Mississippi), (New Orleans, Louisiana) and (Cleveland, Ohio)
This is interesting because I'm from South East Canada super close to New England none of my most common places were in New England, however the map did look very red around New England. I'm not really surprised with the areas that were darkest for me (California area, Arizona, Colorado, New England states, Florida) Because I think of all the American states that people from where I live are from, those would be the most common. This is really cool!
 
I'm Australian, but...

Most similar: Madison, Pembroke Pines, Honolulu
Least similar: Pittsburgh, Little Rock, Tulsa
 
I'm from central Ontario, Canada (like, different enough from an American accent that we say "about" like "a-boat" and "sorry" as "soar-ree") and it had no idea what to make of me. By the end it put me most similar with mostly the west coast of the US which is interesting. I would have thought it would have identified Maine in particular or something.

some of my answers where it was just like "who are you":
