Interesting. I can detect accents, but I was born, raised and reside in AZ. I don’t think that I have an accent, but who knows?

Arizonans have the same flat, colorless accent that folks in Orange County, CA do.

I'd say the typical Anglo Californian accent, btw, would be former governor Pete Wilson.

Reagan never completely lost his downstate Illinois inflections.

Walk into a casino in Las Vegas & look for the oldest dealer in the place. Talk to them for about 5 minutes & then ask them to guess where you’re from. They’ll probably say you’re a local.

I’m born and raised in WV and I’ll never say I don’t have an accent. Heck, around here we can even tell what county strangers are from.
