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.
Many people tell me that I sound like I'm from New England. I've never met anyone from New England so I have no idea.

I'm Australian and got Northeastern. Interesting.
This could either mean an r-less NYC or Providence accent or one from Jersey which doesn't sound the same. Just because you got this result doesn't mean you don`t pronounce R's.(People in Jersey don`t call their state "Joisey" in real life)
Neutral - and I live in the area on the map. People often tell me I sound like I'm from Chicago, though. My mother's family is from there and I lived there for much of my 20s.
Neutral. Not surprised. I lived in England for 5 years and developed a bit of an accent there. Then when I was 5, we moved to Oregon. Then at 6 to Baltimore. It doesn't happen as often now, but when I was younger, I'd get a lot of "Where are you from? I can't tell?" and when I'd explain the above - I'd get "Yeah- it's all of that".
