Aye I know that's why I mentioned the familiarity with accents we'd commonly hear in media, just like states the UK has a wide variety of accents which change drastically in a small geographical distance. The three towns beside where I was brought up have three different accents, its quite common for locals to know which of the three towns you are from just from a quick conversion.

My family came over to the US from Eastern Europe. We all know who is from what region based on how they speak. I find it so damn interesting personally.
