    It gave me:

    LA
    Anaheim
    Santa Ana/Irvine


    I live in a city right below San Francisco.
    Bay Area is still colored dark blood red... good enough for me

        What do you call a drive thru liquor store?

        They have those?

          Yes, we call them "drive thru liquor store" here but that wasn't an option.

          The idea is you buy the booze and don't open it until you get where you are going and are out of the car.

          The quiz placed me Grand Rapids Mi, or Toledo Oh.
          Go figure?

                Test put me in NYC or Yonkers, which is perfect since i live on the border between NYC and Yonkers

                  Just took it again, and got Fremont, Stockton, and Santa Rosa.

                  Little closer.
