I’ve got a Midland accent

I’ve just found this little quiz on the type of American accent one has and now I’m feeling amused to be told that I speak General American (the most neutral American accent):

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

“You have a Midland accent” is just another way of saying “you don’t have an accent.” You probably are from the Midland (Pennsylvania, southern Ohio, southern Indiana, southern Illinois, and Missouri) but then for all we know you could be from Florida or Charleston or one of those big southern cities like Atlanta or Dallas. You have a good voice for TV and radio.
