      By BrainFall Staff - Updated: March 18, 2024

      Everybody loves California – even people who’ve never stepped foot in The Golden State. But what type of Californian are you or would you most embody? Find out now!

      What Type Of Californian Are You?

      California is a tapestry of diverse landscapes and even more diverse personalities. From the sun-kissed surfers of Southern California to the tech-savvy innovators in Silicon Valley, the Golden State offers a niche for every type of individual. It's a place where stereotypes are born and simultaneously broken, where you can find the laid-back beach dweller who lives for the waves, as well as the Hollywood hopeful pacing the Walk of Fame. But what does it truly take to be a Californian?

      Sure, you might indulge in a weekly burrito fix or have an unspoken allegiance to In-N-Out Burger, but being a Californian might be more of a state of mind than mere residency. Maybe you find yourself navigating through life with an unwavering chill attitude, or perhaps you're hustling in your startup garage, proving that California dreaming is still very much alive. It's not just about being able to navigate LA's infamous traffic or having a favorite tech gadget before it's cool—it's about embodying the culture and diversity that make California, well, California.

      Do you find yourself saying "hella" in every other sentence, or are you more likely to wax poetically about the perfect Napa Valley vintage? Ever wondered where on the spectrum of California persona you land? It's time to find out just what kind of Californian you are by heading over to Brainfall and taking the quiz that might just reveal your true West Coast soul.

      The Californian Lifestyle

      In California, your routine might involve riding the waves at dawn and snowboarding at sunset. Your taste buds are likely seasoned with the zest of citrus and the spice of salsa, all while you're possibly plotting your next move on the 405.

      From Surfboards to Snowboards

      Whether you're nailing tubular waves in the morning at Malibu or shredding the gnarly slopes near Lake Tahoe by dusk, you exemplify California's enviable access to both surf and snow. The Golden State gives you the unique chance to boast about catching waves and carving powder in the same day—wear that as a badge of honor!

      Culinary Adventures: Avocados to Burritos

      Your palate knows no bounds in this land; from the creamy goodness of avocados that go with almost everything, to the hearty embrace of a San Francisco mission burrito. Whether you're in SoCal or NorCal, let’s face it, you're spoiled with a symphony of flavors that are as varied as the state's geography.

      Freeway Philosophies: Car Culture and Traffic Tales

      You've likely developed Zen-like patience from the hours spent in traffic on the Pacific Coast Highway or I-5, turning your car into a second home. It's where you've probably mastered the art of sipping your coffee, choosing the perfect playlist, and appreciating the diverse sights from the beaches of San Diego to the urban sprawl of Los Angeles.

      Iconic Regional Quirks

      California isn't just a state, it's a collection of cultures with quirks as distinctive as their landscapes. Whether you're sipping on a smoothie in Santa Monica or navigating the foggy streets of San Francisco, every region has its own vibe and lingo.

      Speaking SoCal: Deciphering the Lingo

      You know you're in Southern California when someone says they're "taking the 101" to grab an In-N-Out burger. Yeah, placing "the" before highway numbers might confuse out-of-towners, but it's as SoCal as putting animal style fries on that secret menu. And let's not forget that Southern Californian drawl where every sentence sounds like a question?

      Between the Weather Forecast and Fashion Norms

      Pull out your shorts in January, and nobody bats an eye. That's your cue; you're in California, where the weather is as mild as the hot sauce at a taco stand. But beware the fog in the Bay Area; it could roll in thicker than the plot of a Hollywood thriller. Oh, don’t get startled by the ground trembling beneath your trendy yoga mat – earthquakes come with the territory.

      The Fame Game: Hollywood and Valley Girl Vibes

      If you're strolling down Hollywood Boulevard and overhear some "Valley girl" talk — you know, like, totally peppered with "like" and "totally" — congratulations, you’ve just encountered a linguistic art form birthed right here in the Golden State. Meanwhile, acting unimpressed by celebrities is a sport; it's essential to keep your cool, even when spotting A-listers buying kale smoothies in their eco-friendly hipster gear.
