The Chicago accent is really a great lakes accent. You hear it as far as buffalo ny and its indeed one of the least pleasing accents to the ears.

Ironiccally I think that accent is much more prevalent in the burbs or nw Indiana than the actual city.

I think you’re right. But there is a distinct Minnesota accent and people from Detroit certainly sound a bit different to me, I don’t know if it has to do with proximity to Canada or what.

That old timey Chicago accent is really dying out but I would hear it every so often by polish guys that I would meet who were from the northwest side of the city. Ironically, people attribute the accent to the Southwest side Irish which I think is innacurate.

Black Chicagoans obviously sound southern, especially, the closer you are to the west side. My maternal side of the family wasn’t from the south, they were from Ohio, so I definitely hear a difference between the way they speak and the traditional black Chicago great migration family, like my dad’s side. They got here before all of the ethnic white immigrants and so don’t speak with the traditional Chicago “ah”. For instance, when we say “Chicago”, it’s not “shi-cah-go”, it’s the original pronunciation “shi-caw-go”.

Coincidently, once you leave out of Chicagoland and northwest Indiana, everyone starts to sound southern.

Yeah The only black people I've seen with the Chicago accent are city workers like firefighters and policemen, or they were older.
And like you said it depends on the neighborhood and i'd even go as far as saying the type of school a person attended.

For instance chance the rapper grew up in Chatham but he sounds like he went to school up north or in the suburbs. And iirc he went to lane tech or another school up north.

Even with myself, Ive had plenty of people tell me I sound 'proper', and I'd say I do sound more 'neutral' bc I mainly went to catholic school and public school in the burbs (although I did go to a couple of grammar schools in the city.).

But I've been told I do say 'shi-cAAAA-go' though:skip:

Native Texan :blessed:....yeah we have the best accents and it's not even close.

Overly nasally accents are :gucci:....so that leaves out those "don't cha knows" from the Upper Midwest (Wisconsin, Illinois etc).

New York? Not bad but not quite sexy...more cute. Deep South...lots of Crisco and grits in those accents. Sexy but kinda funny too.

Texas....dirty South swag plus Cowboy swag = ladies panties drop.

Only problem is that I'm not sure the state has a uniform accent. Brehs in Dallas are gonna sound a little different from brehs in Port Arthur...and they'll sound wayyy different from a breh in Lubbock (all 50 of them).

White people from the urban South seem to be losing their accents. I meet white people from places like Atlanta and Charleston pretty often and they don't really have a drawl.
