I was born in FLorida, lived there for 7 years, moved to Texas, lived there for four, moved to Cali, lived there for 7 years, moved to Georgia, lived here since.

3/4 makes the test pretty accurate in my opinion.

"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.
