Big Seven Travel polls their audience every year to find the 'Sexiest Accents in America.'

The "Midwest Accent" placed 17th in this poll, saying:

The 12 states that make up the Midwest have some of their own unique accents, but generally speaking the Midwestern accent in say, Iowa and Nebraska, is subtle and sweet.

If you're not happy with the Midwest placing 17th, at least we're not New Jersey. They slid from 49th in 2019 to dead last in 2020.

And our neighbor to the north, Minnesota, didn't fare much better. They were 48th in this year's survey, Uff da. But they went up a spot from 2019!
