    Huh. I wanna say it’s wild to claim people from Arizona and New Mexico have Midwestern accents, but I’ve only just realized I have no clue what the hell they do have. Midwestern accents, I guess?

      It’s definitely not Midwestern. Grew up in Colorado and have lived in Ohio and Arizona. Arizona is much more a mountain west accent.

      Well some of new Mexico has a variation of norteno accent. You can find some versions online, also burqeunos. Those are the extremes of new Mexican accents but no new Mexican sounds like Midwestern accent
