This seems pretty accurate.
It got me one state away but it got a few people just like 50 60 miles from their hometown.
One guy even got his hometown as a dialect match
In the text conversation I was in

It said I'm either from Shreveport, baton rouge, or New Orleans. Pretty solid.

It says I’m from Alabama because I say service road???

It pinned me down to Baton Rouge... I'd say that's pretty accurate.

Pinned me down accurately as North Central La.
But they really only needed this question
Answering traffic circle identifies residents of Ellick and surrounding area.

I got the city I grew up in (Montgomery) and the city I currently live in (Birmingham).

Me selecting bubbler as the word I use for a water fountain accurately pinned me as being from Wisconsin

I don't remember that question.
The neutral ground one should be the only answer needed for new Orleans.

The center of the triangle of cities it gave me is about 50 miles from where I was born.
Pretty solid.

Or yins.

Darkest around New Orleans, nailed me, although some of the answers I could have used more than one. I answered traffic-circle, but use roundabout as well. The same for the carbonated beverage answer, I say soft drink, mostly, but sometimes say Coke or CoCola to be funny.

I took it again and answered what I thought was the weirdest answer to each question.
It narrowed me down to Spokane, Portland, or El Paso.

It said I was from Baton Rouge, New Orleans, or Jackson. Not too far, I grew up in South Central Louisiana.
Posted on 2/13/19 at 10:03 am to TH03
Gave me Baton Rouge, New Orleans, or Jackson MS (Because I say 18 Wheeler)
Posted on 2/13/19 at 10:04 am to athenslife101
When I took it a while back it triangulated me between Columbus, Montgomery and Birmingham.
War damn.
War damn.
Posted on 2/13/19 at 10:06 am to TH03
I got Baton Rouge Jackson or Mobile
Posted on 2/13/19 at 10:06 am to athenslife101
Baton Rouge, New Orleans or wtf...Grand Rapids. I guess my yankee roots persist.

That happened to me. I basically averaged out between the two places where I have roots.
