Newark, Yonkers and Baltimore, wut?
Was expecting some combination of PA and MD cities

I'm from Baltimore, so I guess it's correct.
When I was young I spent a lot of time up in cape may, NJ, so I guess that's how Newark showed up?

Don't know where NY came from

Probelm was I used a lot of these terms interchangeably, and the quiz didn't let me select multiple answers.
I seem to pick up accents and dialects quickly

Apparently all over the place mostly concentrated on the west coast and New York

I haven't met a lot of 'muricans, but i now know where they came from.

I was a bit taken aback by some questions, where i didn't even have a word in my native language (french).
Was fun.

I'll give you a hint. I'm not south eastern.

It also picked those cities based off of questions that I couldn't answer...
