About where I should be. But apparently while all three of my most similar cities are at least in states bordering me (Washington D.C., Arlington, Virginia, Durham, North Carolina), it looks like I'd be pretty good to go in Maine for some apparent reason.

This site knows what's up though, since it thinks I should stay the **** out of Detroit.

I got Boston, Yonkers & New York as my 3 most similar cities.

And this was, by far, my favorite question in the quiz...



There's some interesting poetic imagery in those first 7 answers!

Most similar: New York, Boston, Providence
Least similar: Little Rock, Pittsburgh, Akron

Taking the quiz was funny, I'm far away from the American continent!
Most of the times I picked "I have no word for this", which is just the truth.
Looks like the average citizen of NY never talks much...

I agree. I wish I could afford to move out there. But I think I would actually miss real winters, though.
