The only thing your comment spoke to is the homogeneity of accents and language. There’s a lot more to culture than just that.

There's the universal decay of the small town. There's the stark difference between rural and (sub-)urban populations that's exactly the same across the country, south to north, west to east. Other than sports there is no more local culture. And the biggest teams are part of national organizations. There is the vast gap between the haves and have nots wherever you go. We're a consumer society, so consider how marketing defines us. That's US culture.
