@tin pan alley 1619 Broadway on moving there, my father,who dealt with the public found fast that he had to speak slower than the faster Eastern speed speech. I had an American History prof at UCLA that collected accents,spotted where I came from and told that national movement of people went across the country. That the large population of Oregon was Scandinavian in origin,mostly because the Mormons had gone to Europe and promised the people land if they became Mormon. Having g spent time in Minnesota with its' large Scandinavian population background I think the slower careful speech had an influence even in Oregon. Nice people in Oregon
