This is weird...

...because I"m California born and bred and lived-all-my-life. Which means, if there is a California accent, I don't seem to have it.

Which American accent do you have? Neutral You're not Northern, Southern, or Western, you`re just plain -American-. Your national identity is more important than your local identity, because you don`t really have a local identity. You might be from the region in that map, which is defined by this kind of accent, but you could easily not be. Or maybe you just moved around a lot growing up.

I think you just have a very good ear and assimilate a lot of different voices you hear both in person and on television. TV has done an amazing job of turning more of us into national rather than regional speakers. Fear not! You are awesome!

I do think a true Californian accent is American and hard to place, not that the rest of us don't have American accents. It's just the Californian one seems quintessentially American. While I don't know what you sound like, Jane Fonda's voice would provide the template for what I would imagine to be a true Californian accent, neither this nor that. Do you agree?
