Thanks for posting this quiz! Took the test and I can't believe just how accurate it is. Born in Chicago and lived the last 40 years in Milwaukee before relocating to TV. It listed both cities, unbelievable. It is a great party ice breaker.

We took this quiz on FB and it was perfect 5-0 for people at my school. All scattered roots, but it was right every time!

It won't give me an answer. I am able to get to question 25, then nothing.

Maybe I am confusing it and it figures out that I am really in Canada.

It had hard time with me. Grew up in Philly, but spent most of my adult life till now in Southern Maryland. I guess some Maryland slipped in.

Best it could do was put me in the western states (I grew up in Oregon, but spent 21 years in the Navy).
