Each of these states supposedly have no identifiable or a neutral type of accent to most Americans. But which accent in these states sounds more neutral to your ear?
I've lived in Nebraska as well as Washington and Oregon. I don't think there is any difference in the accents in any of these places, you couldn't tell a Washingtonian vs Oregonian vs Nebraskan apart simply by their accents in my mind.

There's definitely differences in how Nebraskans and native Washingtonians speak. Its very.subtile. and not in your face like a Southern or Northeastern accent. Just ask a native Nebraskan or Washingtonian to say Bag or Tommorrow. That's where the differences show up.

Anybody I talk with here in Seattle on a regular basis really says those words the same way we do/did back home in Nebraska, so I honestly am not hearing any difference in accents. Maybe it is just very subtle and with a small subset of native people that I just haven't experienced yet, who knows.

Seattle is mostly transplants from other parts of the US. The true accent from the locals around that area is like a mix of Western Canadian,Californian, and Upper Midwestern, very flat and monotone sounding.
Many Iowans speak in an accent that is very similar to Minnesota's.
