I lived in MN from when I was 10 to 21, but was born in Chicago and have lived here for most of my adult life. The accents are quite different to my ear, and didn't pick up much from MN during my years there, probably since my parents were not native to MN (Chicago and eastern IA). Chicagoland does have some speech patterns separating the north side from the south side, but neither is much like MN.
