Funny discussion about accents.
Here's my two cents from spending four years there 20 years ago...
I'd say you have acclimated to the language when you find your pronunciation of "Worcester" naturally rolls off the tongue as "Wuster" and "Peabody" has no logical pronounciation other than "Pea'bdy".
To be a true master you also have to be able to say with a straight face...
"Put that wicked drooring of the tree in my top draw, wudja?"
